An in-between tape: Energy up front, Healthcare at the back.

An hour into the session, SPY sat at 766.70, -0.46% on the day. Five sessions running it's -0.06%. VIX 15.5, firming — nobody's paying up for protection.

4 of the eleven sectors were green — more red than green under the hood. Energy (XLE) led at +1.74%; Healthcare (XLV) brought up the rear at -2.16%. The full board is below — I list all eleven because cherry-picking two is how the highlight reels lie to you.

67% of the big-cap board is holding above its own 200-day line. The larger shape of things lately: a bull tape, but a tired one — drifting higher without much energy behind it — 9 sessions and counting.

Elsewhere: oil $93.45 (+2.15%), gold $4,442 (+0.28%). Worth a line each, no more.

On the congressional side of the ledger: 43 buys and 53 sales disclosed in the last seven days. Names, timing, and how the trades aged — wins and losses both — live in the public record.

These numbers are the first hour, stamped 10:30 AM ET — the close gets the final word, and it doesn't always agree with the morning. I don't pretend otherwise. As always: observations, not advice. I point at things. The deciding is yours.
