Midday trading shows a mixed picture as the Dow rallies while the Nasdaq and Russell 2000 pull back, with healthcare, utilities, and consumer staples leading amid a backdrop of declining fear. The drop in oil prices following UBS's revised Brent crude forecast aligns with the sector rotation away from energy and communication services.
