The major US stock indexes finished trading mixed, the reason for which was a decline in the shares of the technology sector, and mixed data on the US.
As the report published by the Institute for Supply Management (ISM) showed, activity in the US manufacturing sector fell sharply in October, retreating from the 13-year high reached in September. The PMI index for the manufacturing sector in October was 58.7 points against 60.8 points in September. Analysts had expected that this figure would drop only to 59.5 points.
At the same time, construction costs in the United States unexpectedly increased in September, as the surge in public construction costs offset the third consecutive monthly decline in investment in private projects. The Department of Commerce said that construction costs rose by 0.3% in September, to $ 1.22 trillion. However, the change in expenses for August was revised downwards to + 0.1% from + 0.5%. Economists predicted that construction costs would be reduced by 0.1%. Compared with September 2016, construction costs increased by 2.0%.
A certain impact on the course of trading also had the outcome of the Fed meeting. As was widely expected, the Fed kept the federal funds rate range between 1.00% and 1.25%. At the same time, the Fed left open the question of raising rates for the December meeting. "If the economic situation in the US continues to develop in a positive direction, the Fed may again increase the rate this year," the statement said. The Fed noted that the US economy remains strong, despite the effects of hurricanes, which are likely to have a temporary negative impact on economic activity, employment and inflation, but they probably will not be able to significantly change the medium-term prospects for the country's economy.
Most components of the DOW index finished trading in positive territory (21 out of 30). The leader of growth was shares of Intel Corporation (INTC, + 2.35%). Outsider were the shares of Apple Inc. (AAPL, -1.45%).
Most sectors of the S & P index recorded an increase. The base resources sector grew most (+ 0.9%). The utilities sector showed the greatest decrease (-0.5%).
