JULIE HYMAN: Let's go to Yahoo Finance's Ines Ferre now with what we are watching in the markets at this hour. Last I checked, what, the NASDAQ had turn a little bit positive.

INES FERRE: Yeah, that's right, but it's losing some steam right now. So stocks are wavering a bit. We're watching the Dow that's down about 140 points. The NASDAQ up about 1/10 of a percent. It was about 4/10 of a percent earlier.

And then just looking at the S&P 500, that's about 3/10 of a percent lower. Looking at the sectors, we've been watching technology and consumer discretionary just barely now flat, so we are losing a little bit of steam here. We're watching energy stocks, which they are taking a back seat and utilities as well.

Over on the Dow, I've been watching Salesforce up more than 2%. Also a standout today being Disney, up more than 2%, moving in sympathy with Netflix, which popped earlier this morning after its quarterly results yesterday after the close.

And then UNH down more than 2%. UnitedHealth over the last few days had rallied after its results earlier this week. Over on the NASDAQ 100, just taking a look at Netflix, as I had mentioned earlier, up 1%, but losing some of the steam from earlier. It had opened up more than 3%, jumping the most since April 26.

And then just looking at the travel stocks, we have been watching these over the last couple of days. These are seeing a little bit of a mixed action here. As I mentioned, energy taking a backseat today, energy stocks. And also looking at oil, oil is pulling back after a three-day climb. We're watching WTI, which is down more than 1%. Brent Crude also down more than 1 and 1/2%, just sitting above $105 a barrel, guys.
