A recent flurry of selling stole gains from the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq, but the two have started to recover. The Dow made only a modest move lower, so it continues to sport a solid gain.
The dollar was also hit with some recent selling. In turn, the greenback is now at a session low. Most of the dollar's drop is owed to strength in the euro, yen, and British pound, which are up 0.7%, 0.3%, and 0.5%, respectively, against the greenback.
