[BRIEFING.COM] A lot of attention has been paid to the software stocks and semiconductor stocks, and understandably so, as they are moving decidedly in different directions today. The iShares GS Software ETF (IGV 84.02, -4.72, -5.32%) is down over 5.0% while the VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH 485.09, +8.26, +1.73%) is pushing a 2.0% gain.

These aren't the only big movers today, however.

The utilities sector (+2.5%) is the biggest gainer, followed by the industrials (+2.0%), consumer staples (+1.5%), and real estate (1.1%) sectors.

NextEra Energy (NEE 96.08, +6.08, +6.76%), Dover (DOV 232.30, +16.13, +7.46%), Keurig Dr Pepper (KDP 28.56, +2.02, +7.61%), and Crown Castle (CCI 87.54, +1.53, +1.78%), all of which reported earnings results, are some of the biggest gainers in those respective sectors.
