A green day, and 9 of eleven sectors came along.

An hour into the session, SPY sat at 764.73, +0.63% on the day. Five sessions running it's -0.27%. VIX 18.3, easing — protection is getting bid — somebody's nervous.

9 of the eleven sectors were green — more green than red under the hood. Consumer Discretionary (XLY) led at +1.68%; Communication Services (XLC) brought up the rear at -0.92%. All eleven are in the table below. I publish the whole row, not just the flattering ends of it.

63% of the big-cap board is holding above its own 200-day line.

Elsewhere: oil $100.89 (-2.30%), gold $4,025 (+0.44%). Worth a line each, no more.

On the congressional side of the ledger: 15 buys and 12 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 10:31 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.
