Stock Market Update

[BRIEFING.COM] The S&P 500 (+1.4%), Nasdaq Composite (1.9%), and DJIA (+1.3%) trade in a tight range near session highs as the market enters the final half hour of trading. 

Broad-based buying interest pushed many stocks to early gains, and there has been a lack of economic data or trade developments to distract from the early advances. 

While this morning's batch of earnings reports was not as heavy as those to come this week, there are still some notable movers.

Energizer (ENR 27.94, +5.80, +26.2%), Wayfair (W 73.62, +8.40, +12.9%), and Freshpet (FRPT 70.95, +5.10, +7.74%) all trade higher after beating EPS expectations, while shares of Commscope (COMM 14.68, +6.89, +88.5%) surged following a healthy EPS beat, raised guidance, and a definitive agreement to sell its Connectivity and Cable Solutions segment to Amphenol (APH 108.11, +3.80, +3.64%) for $10.5 billion in cash.
