The stock market is without direction for the second straight session. The lackluster trade is partly a consequence of so few catalysts, given the absence of meaningful data in recent days and the shift in the earnings announcement lineup away from blue chips and industry bellwethers to names with less quality.
Even though the stock market continues to chop along, Treasuries are still having a quiet session. As such, the benchmark 10-year Note is up only a handful of ticks.
