The S&P 500, Dow, and Nasdaq 100 were around 0.5% higher.

Oil prices held their surge despite signals of the IEA's coordinated stockpile release and the US decision to ease sanctions on Russia.

Yields remained sharply higher since the start of the month despite fresh data showing that the US GDP was firmly lower than expected in Q4, pressuring credit-sensitive equities.

Chip producers were higher to maintain their outperformance this week on optimistic results from Oracle and TSMC, with Nvidia adding 1.6%.

In the meantime, Sherwin Williams, 3M, and UnitedHealth gained to set the pace for consumer defensive.

Also, asset managers trimmed losses after redemptions on private credit funds.
