U.S. STOCKS MIXED AND MESSY EARLY
Wall Street's main indexes are mixed early on Friday as investors continue to asses the recent rotation, while also gauging the impact of a sweeping global tech outage.
An update to one of CrowdStrike's CRWD.O products appeared to be the trigger for the cyber outage that affected customers using Microsoft's MSFT.O Windows Operating System, disrupting businesses across sectors and sending the cybersecurity firm's shares down sharply.
In any event, action is mixed and messy with both FANGs .NYFANG and banks .SPXBK, .KRX higher out of the gate, while chips .SOX are red.
S&P 500 .SPX sectors are mixed with more economically sensitive groups taking the biggest hits. Overall, growth .IGX is slightly outperforming value .IVX.
The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite .IXIC are on pace for their biggest weekly percentage drops since the markets mid-April lows. The Dow .DJI is still on track to post a weekly gain.
Here is a snapshot of where markets stood around 1010 ET (1410 GMT):
