A green day, and 8 of eleven sectors came along.

An hour into the session, SPY sat at 763.16, +0.99% on the day. Five sessions running it's -0.30%. VIX 18.1, easing — protection is getting bid — somebody's nervous.

8 of the eleven sectors were green — more green than red under the hood. Consumer Discretionary (XLY) led at +2.93%; Energy (XLE) brought up the rear at -1.61%. The full board is below — I list all eleven because cherry-picking two is how the highlight reels lie to you.

66% 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 — 6 sessions and counting.

Elsewhere: oil $97.19 (-6.66%), gold $3,967 (+1.75%). Worth a line each, no more.

On the congressional side of the ledger: 3 buys and 29 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. None of this is advice. I read the public tape out loud; what you do with it is your own business.
