Major US stock indices closed mainly in the red

Major US stock indices mainly declined, having come under pressure due to the collapse of shares of Cisco Systems (CSCO).

CSCO shares fell 7.35% after the company said it expects its revenue in the current quarter to fall by 3-5% YoY to ~ $ 11.82-12.07 billion due to lower global costs for its routers and switches, Some of which are made in China.

In addition to Cisco, Walmart (WMT) also presented its reporting. The retailer reported exceeded expectations for quarterly earnings and comparable sales in the United States, and also increased its annual profit forecast. However, Walmart's revenue was slightly lower than Wall Street's average forecast. WMT shares fell 0.36%.

Uncertainty around the deal between the US and China also remained a deterrent to the market. China said Thursday that both sides are holding a “detailed” discussion of trade issues, and tariff cancellation is an important condition for a deal.

The market participants also focused on the speech of Fed Chairman Powell and several reports. Powell, he noted that the Fed does not see signs that trade problems affect the entire economy, but added that they exacerbated the recession in production this year. Nevertheless, according to him, the US economy is currently in much better shape than the economies of other countries and the Fed predicts that it will continue to grow moderately.

The Labor Department said US producer prices rose in October in the most in six months. According to the report, the producer price index rose 0.4% last month, which is the largest increase since April after falling 0.3% in September. Over the 12 months to October, the index rose 1.1%, the smallest increase since October 2016, after rising 1.4% in September. The annual inflation of manufacturers declined, as a significant increase in the last year fell out of the calculation. Economists had forecast that the index would rise by 0.3% in October and increase by 0.9% year on year.
