Oil-related exchange-traded funds were among few gainers Tuesday, as many bundled securities were enjoying the same breather the major markets were taking.
Crude prices were on the march upward, after six consecutive slides pulled the June contract lower by 7.5%. Recently, oil was adding 75 cents to $62.22 a barrel. The United States Oil (USO Quote) ETF was adding 48 cents, or 1%, to $48.54. The iPath Goldman Sachs Crude Oil Index (OIL Quote) was gaining 32 cents, or 0.9%, to $35.55. The PowerShares DB Energy (DBE Quote) ETF tacked on 10 cents, or 0.4%, to $27.44. The Internet Architecture HOLDRs (IAH Quote) was another of the session's winners, after holding Hewlett-Packard (HPQ Quote) raised its second-quarter guidance for earnings and revenue. Shares of H-P were higher by 1.8%, and the ETF was gaining 25 cents, or 0.6%, to $45.64. On the flip side, the HealthShares Emerging Cancer (HHJ Quote) was one of the day's biggest losers. Shares of Dendreon (DNDN Quote) fell more than 4%, just one week before an expected Food and Drug Administration ruling on the company's Provenge drug. The ETF was recently down 50 cents, or 1.9%, to $25.95. Bundled securities tracking silver and gold were also losing ground. Silver futures dipped 4 cents to $13.61 an ounce. Gold futures gave back $2.40 to $688 an ounce The Market Vectors Gold Miners (GDX Quote) slipped 1.2% to $40.51. The iShares Comex Gold Trust (IAU Quote) was shedding 0.5% to $67.96. The PowerShares DB Silver (DBS Quote) ETF was recently lower by 0.5% to $26.47. The iShares Silver Trust (SLV Quote) was down 0.3% to $134.10.- Loading Comments...
