[BRIEFING.COM] The major averages remain little changed from previous levels, with the S&P 500 (-0.6%) and Nasdaq Composite (-1.3%) remaining firmly lower while the DJIA (+0.4%) holds on to a modest gain.
The Russell 2000 (-1.1%) and S&P Mid Cap 400 (-1.1%) hold similar losses as U.S. Treasuries drift toward their unchanged levels after opening gains. Despite this week’s “broadening out” theme, the smaller cap indices lag the major averages on a week-to-date basis.
