The major averages are all higher. The State Street SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:SPY) is up 2.22% and the Invesco QQQ Trust, Series 1 (NASDAQ:QQQ) 3.37%, while the State Street SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF Trust (NYSE:DIA) is up 1.78% and the iShares Russell 2000 Index Fund (NYSE:IWM) 2.58%. Four of the 11 sectors outpace the S&P 500. Sectors below are ranked against one another rather than grouped by direction, so a sector can be higher and still rank among the day’s laggards.
Among the sector’s large-cap names, Broadcom Inc (NASDAQ:AVGO) is up 8.98%, Oracle Corp (NYSE:ORCL) 3.12% and Apple Inc (NASDAQ:AAPL) 2.53%.
Among the sector’s large-cap names, Caterpillar Inc (NYSE:CAT) is up 6.18%, Honeywell International Inc (NASDAQ:HON) 3.89% and GE Aerospace (NYSE:GE) 2.59%.
Among the sector’s large-cap names, Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) is up 6.05%, Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:AMZN) 3.89% and Nike Inc (NYSE:NKE) 2.82%.
Higher so far but the weakest of the advancing sectors. Among the sector’s large-cap names, Eli Lilly and Co (NYSE:LLY) is up 3.18%, Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ) 0.84% and Merck & Co Inc (NYSE:MRK) 0.42%.

The 3.60-point spread between Technology and Consumer Staples is about the same as the largest move among the major averages, which are up between 1.78% and 3.37%. Those broad index gains mask a session where leadership is concentrated in Technology, Industrials and Consumer Discretionary. Defensives are not keeping pace — Consumer Staples sits at the bottom of the table and Real Estate ranks sixth — so the advance is concentrated rather than broad.
