Major US stock indexes lost all the previously earned positions, and ended the session in negative territory, which was due to the market's concern over trade, as well as the fall in the shares of the technology sector.
A certain influence on the course of trading was provided by the US data. As it became known, the deficit of trade in goods in May fell by 3.7% to $ 64.8 billion, the government said in its preliminary report. This was well below the economists estimate of 69.2 billion, surveyed by MarketWatch, and noted a second decline in a row. In May, the revised government report on wholesale stocks showed an increase of 0.5%. The revised retail stocks increased by 0.4%.
In addition, according to the National Association of Realtors, unfinished transactions for the sale of housing fell slightly in May and fell year on year for the fifth consecutive month. A more significant decrease in contract activity in the South compensates for profits in the Northeast, the Midwest and the West. The index of unfinished transactions for the sale of housing, the forecast indicator, based on the signing of contracts, fell to 105.9 from 106.4 in April.
Quotes of oil rose strongly on Wednesday, as the fall in oil reserves in the US exacerbated supply problems due to uncertainty about Libyan exports, a violation of production in Canada, and US demands that importers stop buying Iranian oil from November. The US Energy Ministry reported that last week it was recorded the largest drop in oil reserves since September 2016, while stocks of gasoline and distillates rose less than expected. According to the report, in the week of June 16-22, oil reserves fell by 9.891 million barrels, to 416.6 million barrels. Analysts had expected a drop in inventories of 2.572 million barrels.
Most of the components of DOW finished trading in the red (25 of 30). Outsider were shares of McDonald's Corporation (MCD, -2.16%). The leader of growth was shares of General Electric Company (GE, + 1.60%).
Almost all S & P sectors recorded a decline. The biggest decline was shown by the technological sector (-1.7%). Only the commodities sector showed growth (+ 0.4%).
At closing:
Dow 24,117.59 -165.52 -0.68%
S&P 500 2,699.63 -23.43 -0.86%
Nasdaq 100 7,445.08 -116.54 -1.54%
U.S. commercial crude oil inventories (excluding those in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve) decreased by 9.9 million barrels from the previous week. At 416.6 million barrels, U.S. crude oil inventories are about 4% below the five year average for this time of year.
Total motor gasoline inventories increased by 1.2 million barrels last week and are about 6% above the five year range. Finished gasoline inventories decreased while blending components inventories increased last week.
Distillate fuel inventories remained unchanged last week and are about 14% below the five year average for this time of year. Propane/propylene inventories increased by 4.3 million barrels last week and are about 12% below the five year average for this time of year. Total commercial petroleum inventories decreased by 4.6 million barrels last week.
After two straight months of modest increases, pending home sales dipped in April to their third-lowest level over the past year, according to the National Association of Realtors. All major regions saw no gain in contract activity last month.
The Pending Home Sales Index, a forward-looking indicator based on contract signings, declined 1.3 percent to 106.4 in April from an upwardly revised 107.8 in March. With last month's decrease, the index is down on an annualized basis (2.1 percent) for the fourth straight month.
U.S. stock-index futures were little changed on Wednesday, as the Trump administration softened somewhat its position on regulating foreign investment in the U.S. technology companies.

"The euro edges up against the dollar, last up 0.2% at 1.1670, but looking unlikely to break back towards this week's peak of around 1.1721. U.S. President Donald Trump playing down reports of plans to limit Chinese investment in technology helps ease risk aversion in markets, lending some support to the euro. However, uncertainties remain which will ensure trading in EUR/USD will remain choppy,. It is not easy for the FX market to work out which currency will end up as the possible winner or loser and whether the feared global recession will occur or not,". - Commerzbank

UK annual house price softened to 2%.
Prices up 0.5% during the month, after taking account of seasonal factors.
London was the weakest performing region in Q2, with prices down 1.9% year-on-year.
Commenting on the figures, Robert Gardner, Nationwide's Chief Economist, said: "Annual house price growth fell to its slowest pace for five years in June. However, at 2% this was only modestly below the 2.4% recorded the previous month. "Indeed, annual house price growth has been confined to a fairly narrow range of c2-3% over the past 12 months, suggesting little change in the balance between demand and supply in the market over that period".
ANZ Business Outlook Survey provides a timely gauge of sentiment in the business community and expectations regarding the outlook. When businesses were asked what they thought about business conditions in the year ahead, a net 39% of businesses were pessimistic, down 12 points and back at November lows.

Firms' expectations of their own activity are a better gauge of future GDP growth. Firms' views of their own activity dipped from +14 to +9 in June but remain positive. Looking at own activity by industry, retailers remain the least positive (+6), while manufacturers are the most upbeat (+16).
