Energy (up +1.72%) and Utilities (+1.13%) rose over >1% to lead ten of the eleven primary sectors higher. Consumer Staples (down -0.28%) was the only primary sector to close in the red. The Nasdaq edged +0.13% higher to 14,522.38, just shy of its record settlement of 14,528.33. The small capitalisation Russell 2000 gained +0.81%.
