Major US stock indices registered a slight increase after investors heard evidence of former FBI director James Komi.
The Komi, which investigated the alleged interference of Russia in the presidential election in 2016 in the US, said that it did not doubt that Russia was trying to interfere in the elections, but was sure that this did not affect the vote.
In addition, as it became known, the number of Americans applying for unemployment benefits fell last week, suggesting that the labor market is tightening, despite the recent slowdown in employment growth. Initial applications for unemployment benefits fell by 10,000 to 245,000, seasonally adjusted for the week ending June 3, the Ministry of Labor said on Thursday.
At the same time, the data from IBD / TIPP showed that the index of economic optimism in the US, calculated by the Investor's Business Daily newspaper and the research firm TechnoMetrica Institute of Policy and Politics, was 51.3 points in June, which coincided with the indicator for May. Experts expected that the figure will rise to 51.6 points.
Most components of the DOW index closed in the red (17 out of 30). Most fell shares of The Walt Disney Company (DIS, -1.46%). The leader of growth was the shares of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (GS, + 1.57%).
Most sectors of the S & P index recorded an increase. The leader of growth was the financial sector (+ 0.8%). The utilities sector fell most of all (-0.8%).

The trend in housing starts was 214,621 units in May 2017, compared to 213,435 units in April 2017, according to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC). This trend measure is a six-month moving average of the monthly seasonally adjusted annual rates (SAAR) of housing starts.
"Housing starts trended higher in May in Canada's urban areas", said Bob Dugan, CMHC's Chief Economist. "Row and apartment units led the upward move, while construction has slowed for pricier single- and semi-detached houses."
Apartment construction continues to drive the residential market in Halifax with year-to-date apartment starts more than double 2016 levels. The single-detached demand is also picking up pace following a couple years of decline. Year-to date, single-detached construction has grown by 16 percent.

"At today's meeting, which was held in Tallinn, the Governing Council of the ECB decided that the interest rate on the main refinancing operations and the interest rates on the marginal lending facility and the deposit facility will remain unchanged at 0.00%, 0.25% and -0.40% respectively. The Governing Council expects the key ECB interest rates to remain at their present levels for an extended period of time, and well past the horizon of the net asset purchases.
Regarding non-standard monetary policy measures, the Governing Council confirms that the net asset purchases, at the current monthly pace of €60 billion, are intended to run until the end of December 2017, or beyond, if necessary, and in any case until the Governing Council sees a sustained adjustment in the path of inflation consistent with its inflation aim. The net purchases will be made alongside reinvestments of the principal payments from maturing securities purchased under the asset purchase programme. If the outlook becomes less favourable, or if financial conditions become inconsistent with further progress towards a sustained adjustment in the path of inflation, the Governing Council stands ready to increase the programme in terms of size and/or duration.
The President of the ECB will comment on the considerations underlying these decisions at a press conference starting at 14:30 CET today".

European stocks ended a choppy session slightly lower on Wednesday, as investors took a cautious approach ahead of a jam-packed Thursday session that has the potential to shake up financial markets significantly. "On Thursday, markets will face the ECB monetary policy meeting, the testimony of former FBI James Comey and the U.K. General Election," said Richard Perry, market analyst at Hantec Markets, in a note.
U.S. stocks closed slightly higher Wednesday as the financial sector helped to cap a sharp drop in energy shares, ahead of potentially market moving events on Thursday, including the U.K. election and former FBI director James Comey Senate testimony.
