Relative pockets of weakness are found in the market's defensive-oriented areas, namely the consumer staples (-0.4%), health care (-0.2%), and telecom services (-0.1%) sectors. Their weakness is not really impinging on the broader market, though, which is creating a sense that money is moving between sectors as opposed to moving out of the stock market altogether.
Blue chips are doing well, but it is the small-cap and mid-cap stocks that are doing the best at this juncture. The Russell 2000 is up 0.7% while the S&P 400 Midcap Index is up 0.6%. DJ30 +61.54 NASDAQ +16.38 SP500 +7.89 NASDAQ Adv/Vol/Dec 1583/662 mln/756 NYSE Adv/Vol/Dec 2012/280 mln/837
11:00 am : The major averages are holding near their best levels of the session, underpinned by the familiar buy-the-dip trade and stronger-than-expected economic news in the form of the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment and Leading Indicators reports.
The latter releases have seemingly erased the memory of yesterday's weak batch of data that included the weekly initial claims, Philadelphia Fed Index, Housing Starts, and Industrial Production reports. The ongoing liquidity support provided by the Federal Reserve, of course, allows for the market to have a short memory. To that end, it is safe to say, given how quickly the market made up yesterday's losses, that many sources were overreaching when attributing Thursday's afternoon selloff to the regurgitated remarks from San Francisco Fed President Williams about possibly tapering the Fed's asset purchases

Although cyclical sectors saw slim gains in earlier action, only the technology space remains in positive territory. Elsewhere, the Dow Jones Transportation Average hovers near its lows after the bellwether complex made just a brief morning appearance in positive territory. Elsewhere, the discretionary sector is the weakest performer among growth-sensitive groups. Homebuilders were pressured by disappointing housing starts data and retailers trade lower as well.

1:00 pm : At midday, the Dow and S&P 500 are little changed while the Nasdaq trades higher by 0.2%. The major averages began the day on a mixed note as disappointing economic data pressured the Dow and S&P while better-than-expected earnings from Cisco Systems (CSCO 23.76, +2.55) provided the Nasdaq with some support. The Nasdaq continues to hover near its best levels of the day while the technology sector trades higher by 1.1%. The largest tech component, Apple (AAPL 435.89, +7.04), lagged early, but now trades in line with the sector. Today's economic news was plentiful, and most reports fell short of expectations. A decline in housing starts has weighed on homebuilders as major names trade lower across the board. The broader SPDR S&P Homebuilders ETF (XHB 31.82, -0.62) is down 1.9%. The underperformance of homebuilders has caused the discretionary sector to remain in negative territory while other

- June crude oil sold off to a session low of $92.16 per barrel following inventory data that showed a draw of 0.624 mln barrels when a build of 0.375 mln was anticipated. However, the energy component saw a reversal moments later and pushed higher. It erased the earlier losses as it crossed the unchanged line in afternoon floor action and settled 0.1% higher at $94.23 per barrel.
- June natural gas traded higher for a third consecutive session, rising as high as $4.08 per MMBtu in morning floor trade. It chopped around for the remainder of the session just below that level and settled with a 1.2% gain at $4.07 per MMBtu.
- June gold fell for a fifth consecutive session as a stronger dollar pressured prices. The yellow metal fell below $1400 per ounce after retreating from a session high of $1416.50 per ounce. It dipped to a session low of $1389.00 per ounce and settled at $1396.40 per ounce, booking a loss of 2.0%.
- July silver also struggled in the red for its entire session. Prices fell as low as $22.45 per ounce in late morning action despite touching a session high of $23.00 per ounce moments after floor trade opened. Silver eventually settled 3.1% lower at $22.66 per ounce.
3:00 pm : The three averages trade within 0.2% of their respective flat lines as today's session enters its final hour. In the foreign exchange market, the Dollar Index is higher by 0.3% at 83.84, putting it on track for its fifth consecutive day of gains. The bulk of today's dollar strength came at the expense of the euro as the EURUSD pair sheds 60 pips to 1.2870 after this morning's
