1:00 pm : More of the same for stocks as a bullish bias remains intact. As reflected in the A/D line, advancers hold a nearly 3-to-1 advantage over decliners on the NYSE while advancing issues outpace declining issues by an almost 2-to-1 margin. A nearly 3-to-1 ratio of up to down volume at both the Big Board and the Composite, though, paints an even more positive picture of today's broad-based performance.DJ30 +105.60 NASDAQ +13.81 SP500 +9.52 NASDAQ Dec/Adv/Vol 1016/1914/1.11 bln NYSE Dec/Adv/Vol 790/2355/890 mln

12:30 pm : No change to the prevailing trend as the afternoon session gets underway. The Dow continues to lead the charge, as it is up 1.0% on the day and less than 2% away from reaching its all-time closing high of 11,722.98 on January 14, 2000. The S&P 500, albeit also turning in a solid performance (+0.8%), is at its best levels in five years but is a much farther 13% away from hitting its historic high of 1527 on March 24, 2000 that was largely the result of the Tech sector accounting for about 30% of the weighting on the S&P. Tech, which is up about 3% for the year, accounts for nearly half that (15.4%) today.DJ30 +110.30 NASDAQ +16.08 SP500 +10.30 NASDAQ Dec/Adv/Vol 1025/1873/1.00 bln NYSE Dec/Adv/Vol 781/2326/808 mln
