The main US stock indices increased moderately on Tuesday, reaching record highs, mainly due to the rise in price of financial and industrial shares against the background of the fact that the hurricane Irma has weakened to the level of a tropical storm.
Investors' attention was also focused on Apple's presentation event (AAPL), during which it introduced a new line of iPhone, which included three phones - the iPhone 8, the iPhone 8 Plus and the "jubilee" iPhone X.
In addition, as shown by the survey of vacancies and labor turnover (JOLTS), published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in the US, in July the number of vacancies increased to 6.17 million, updating a record high. The indicator for June was revised to 6.116 million from 6.163 million. Analysts had expected the number of vacancies to decrease to 5.96 million. The vacancy rate was 4.0%, unchanged from June. The number of vacancies has changed little in the private sector, and declined in the government segment (-58,000). As for the branches, the number of vacancies increased most in the sector of other services (+111,000), transport, warehousing and utilities (+70,000), and in the educational services (+26,000). The reduction in the number of vacancies was recorded in the health and social assistance sector (-62,000), state and local authorities, with the exception of education (-46,000), and the federal government (-21,000).
Oil prices rose slightly, receiving support from OPEC statements that its production declined in August. This situation indicates that the production reduction pact helps to reduce the volume of supplies. In its monthly report, OPEC also raised the demand forecast for 2018 and stated that the two hurricanes that hit the United States in recent weeks will have a "minor" impact on demand. Meanwhile, the report indicated that the oil output of the 14 OPEC member countries fell by 79,000 barrels per day in July compared to July, to 32.76 million barrels per day, which is lower than the demand forecast.
Most components of the DOW index recorded a rise (20 out of 30). Leader of growth were the shares of Pfizer Inc. (PFE, + 3.09%). Outsider were shares of McDonald's Corporation (MCD, -3.30%).
Almost all sectors of the S & P index finished trading in positive territory. The financial sector grew most (+ 0.6%). The most significant decline was in the utilities sector (-1.6%).
At closing:
DJIA + 0.28% 22,118.86 +61.49
Nasdaq + 0.34% 6,454.28 +22.02

The annual rate of inflation for goods leaving the factory gate increased for the first time in 6 months in August 2017.
Factory gate prices (output prices) rose 3.4% on the year to August 2017, up from 3.2% in July 2017, with the change in the rate being driven mainly by petroleum products.
Prices for materials and fuels (input prices) rose 7.6% on the year to August 2017, up from 6.2% in July 2017, with the change in the rate being driven mainly by crude oil.
Recent rises to input costs may have now passed through industries that represent core inflation, although energy and food prices have grown in recent months.
The Consumer Prices Index including owner occupiers' housing costs 12-month inflation rate was 2.7% in August 2017, up from 2.6% in July 2017.
Rising prices for clothing and motor fuels were the main contributors to the increase in the rate between July and August 2017.
Air fares also rose between July and August but the rise was smaller than between the same two months a year ago and so resulted in a partially offsetting, downward contribution.
The Consumer Prices Index (CPI) 12-month rate was 2.9% in August 2017, up from 2.6% in July 2017.

Stocks across Europe rallied on Monday, led by gains for insurance stocks as Hurricane Irma took a narrower path over Florida than expected, promising less damage. Investors were also seen as taking heart from an easing of worries over North Korea's potential nuclear arsenal, after Pyongyang failed to conduct a missile test to mark its Foundation Day on Saturday, as some had feared.
U.S. stock-market indexes booked their biggest one-day gains in months, while the benchmark S&P 500 ended the session at an all-time high on Monday, in a broad rally led by financials and technology shares. Wall Street optimism was underpinned by Hurricane Irma delivering a less forceful hit on Florida than expected and North Korea failing to conduct another nuclear missile test over the weekend, reviving investor appetite for assets perceived as risky, such as equities.
Investors continued to buy risk assets and sell havens Tuesday, as Asian stocks extended gains while the yen and gold fell further. "The world's financial markets are the very picture of calm and tranquility, where the short sellers are getting squeezed and the bulls are once again dominating," said Chris Weston, chief market strategist at IG Markets in a note to clients.
