Stocks trade with losses as the S&P 500 approaches its session
low. There is currently a noticeable lack of leadership in the
session's action. Financials (+0.1%) had been providing a boon to the
session's earlier advance. However, selling has picked up and pushed
the sector lower. Nonetheless, financials are holding on to a 10%
week-to-date advance, which has helped propel the stock market to a
1.2% week-to-date advance.
