  • Stocks are trading mixed after paring early gains - the Dow marking new all-time high of 41,370.37 after the open.

  • Information Technology and Health Care sectors underperformed in the first half, the former weighed down by hardware and software makers rather than chip makers for a change: Crowdstrike -2.85%, Super Micro Computer and Cadence Design Systems both -2.45%, Western Digital -1.96%. Pharmaceutical stocks weighed on the Health Care sector: Eli Lilly -5.14%, Merck -1.80%, Revvity -0.96%.
  • Energy and Real Estate sectors led gainers in early trade, oil and gas shares trading firmer: Kinder Morgan +3.85%, APA Corp +2.70%, Coterra +1.69%. Meanwhile, investment trusts buoyed the latter, particularly residential and retail REITS: Prologis + 1.66%, Camden Property and Vici Properties both +1.59%, Kimco +1.30%.
