The stock market has poked its nose into positive territory. The
Dow Jones Industrial Average has also moved higher and is now sporting
a decent gain.
Regional banks (-3.9%) have been some of the worst performers this
session. Industry members Fifth Third Bancorp (FITB 18.83, -0.72),
KeyCorp (KEY 19.76, -2.19), and Suntrust Banks (STI 51.96, -2.04) are
some of the primary laggards. Each is trading at or near its 52-week
low.
