Stocks moved broadly higher on Wall Street in early trading Friday, extending gains from a day earlier.

The benchmark S&P 500 index was on track to close out the first quarter with its best quarterly gain since the third quarter of 2009. The S&P technology sector powered much of those gains, climbing more than 18 percent.
