Stocks opened little changed as the market digests its big gains from yesterday. The early economic reports were mixed, though the jobless claims data showed the lowest number of initial claims in 45 years. Oil prices are lower amid reports of higher production numbers in December from OPEC nations. Bitcoin prices are slightly higher as the cryptocurrency looks to stabilize from its sharp drop over the past two sessions. In early trading, the Dow is down 14 points, the Nasdaq is up 1 point and the S&P is flat.
