The ten lines

  1. 1

    UP Cintas Corporation

    CTAS

    CTAS leads the mid-cap board by midday, up 7.08 percent to 205.99. The move fits the day's defensive bias, with staples and health care the tape's two strongest sectors.

  2. 2

    UP AeroVironment

    AVAV

    AVAV adds 6.74 percent to 150.74 by midday, continuing what has been a firm week for defense-adjacent names as the broader growth complex softens.

  4. 3

    UP TFI International

    TFII

    TFII gains 6.74 percent to 156.08 and has reclaimed its 50-day average intraday — a technical reset that stands out given the industrial sector's modest 0.65 percent decline on the day.
