Major US stock indexes ended the trading session mixed, as the disappointing quarterly reports of a number of companies and the fall of the financial sector were offset by growth in the conglomerate sector.
The focus of investors was also data from the Chicago Fed, which showed that the growth rate of economic activity slowed in September compared with August. According to the report, the national activity index was +0.17 against +0.27 in August. Indicators related to production made a negative contribution to the index, dropping to +0.11 from +0.16 in August, while employment indicators made a positive contribution, reaching +0.07 against +0.06 in August.
Most of the components of DOW finished trading in the red (19 out of 30). The outsider was DowDuPont Inc. (DWDP, -2.50%). The growth leader was shares of Intel Corporation (INTC, + 2.55%).
Most sectors of the S & P recorded a decline. The largest decline was shown by the financial sector (-1.1%). The conglomerate sector grew the most (+ 1.2%),

The building material and supplies subsector declined for the second time in three months, down 2.3% to $9.5 billion in August. Sales were down in two of three industries, with the lumber, millwork, hardware and other building supplies industry (-3.5%) contributing the most to the decline. The decrease in August offset the gain in July for both the subsector (+1.2%) and the industry (+0.3%). Related indicators including housing starts (-6.4%), and exports of forestry products and building and packaging materials (-2.8%) also declined in August.

Japan's all industry activity rebounded in August, according to rttnews.
The all industry activity index climbed 0.5 percent month-on-month in August, reversing a 0.2 percent drop in July and a 0.9 percent decrease in June. Economists had forecast a monthly growth of 0.4 percent.
Among components, construction industry activity gained 0.8 percent, in contrast to a 1 percent fall in July. At the same time, industrial production grew 0.2 percent, offsetting July's 0.2 percent decrease.
Tertiary industry activity climbed 0.5 percent, following a 0.1 percent fall in July.
On a yearly basis, all industry activity advanced 0.9 percent, the same rate of expansion as logged in July.
Unclaimed funeral urns, accumulated by thousands throughout Japan, reflecting the weakening of family ties and economic pressure in a rapidly aging country, says a Reuters editorial.
The personalities of the dead, cremated at public expense, are usually known. But in most cases, relatives either refuse or do not respond to requests to collect their remains. Burials can be expensive and time consuming, which is a burden for family members who hardly know the deceased relative.
Abandoned remains indicate social, economic and demographic changes in Japan, where more and more older people live on welfare, and families are more fragmented, indicating a weakening of traditional family ties and obligations.
Experts say this is a problem that is likely to grow. Mortality in Japan is projected to increase from 1.33 million per year to 1.67 million by 2040, even when the total population decreases.
Traditional funerals, including food, drinks and gifts for guests, as well as hiring a Buddhist monk, can cost 2 million yen ($ 17,800) or more, industry sources say.
New businesses have appeared, offering a no-nonsense funeral for between $ 2,000 and $ 4,000, but other expenses may arise, including hundreds of dollars and burial of an urn in a temple or cemetery.
