NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- The U.S. stock market opened higher Wednesday, led by gains in the energy and health-care sectors.
Keeping a lid on the move were softer-than-expected retails sales data as well as disappointing quarterly results from retailers such as Macy's Inc and Fossil Gorup Inc.
The S&P 500 (SPX) opened 8 points, or 0.4%, higher at 1,942.53.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) added 57 point, or 0.4%, to 16,618.15.
The Nasdaq Composite (RIXF) began the session up 22 points, or 0.5%, at 4,911.59.
Sales at U.S. retailers were unchanged in July, the weakest result in six months, as sales fell at auto dealers, but rose at gas stations and food and beverage stores, according to government data released Wednesday.
A report on inventories at U.S. businesses in June is due at 10 a.m. Eastern Time, and economists expect a rise of 0.3%. Inventories rose 0.5% in May.
Geopolitical tensions in Ukraine and the Middle East, which still hovered in the background, have been cited as one of the reason for weakness in equity markets.
