Analytics, News, and Forecasts for CFD Markets: stock news — 30-06-2017.
The main US stock indexes were on a positive territory for most of the session, but during the last minutes of trading the quotes fell sharply, as a result of which the auctions ended without a single dynamic. The main support for the market was provided by shares of the industrial segment and conglomerate sector.
Investors also evaluated a block of important data. The Commerce Department report showed that consumer spending, accounting for more than two-thirds of US economic activity, rose 0.1% last May, while consumer prices, excluding food and energy, rose 1.4% since May 2016. The slower growth in consumer spending followed strong performance in April and March. The economy is still on track to return to stronger growth in the second quarter after a modest expansion in the first three months of the year. At the same time, the price index for personal consumption expenditure (PCE) fell 0.1% in May from April, and when food and energy were excluded, it grew by 0.1%. The growth rate over the 12-month period for so-called core inflation has slowed since February, although Fed Chairman Janet Yellen said earlier this month that the fall was likely to be temporary.
At the same time, the final research results submitted by Thomson-Reuters and the Michigan Institute showed that in June US consumers felt more pessimistic about the economy than last month. According to the data, in June the consumer sentiment index fell to 95.1 points compared to the final reading for May of 97.1 points and the preliminary value for June of 94.5 points. It was predicted that the index will be 94.5 points.
Most components of the DOW index finished trading in positive territory. (25 out of 30). Leader of the growth were shares of NIKE, Inc. (NKE, + 10.91%). Outsider were shares of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (GS, -0.89%).
All sectors of S & P recorded a rise. The conglomerate sector grew more than others (+ 1.9%).
At closing:
Dow + 0.29% 21.349.63 +62.60
Nasdaq -0.06% 6,140.42 -3.93
S & P + 0.15% 2.423.41 +3.71
Major U.S. stock-indexes demonstrated slim gains, buoyed by gains in the industrial and consumer discretionary sectors. Meanwhile, the technology sector struggled to hold its ground.

European stocks ended with sharp losses on Thursday, as a rally by the euro reversed earlier optimism, hitting industrials, utilities and consumer shares. Even as shares of European banks and basic materials companies rose, boosted by the outcome of U.S. bank stress tests and a weaker U.S. dollar, respectively, key regional benchmarks failed to follow them higher.
U.S. stocks tumbled Thursday, with the S&P 500 and Dow industrials logging their worst one-day declines since May as the technology sector resumed its selloff, overshadowing advances in financials.
The wild ride for global stock markets continued Friday, with Asian equities declining following selling in the U.S. and Europe. The drop in Asia reversed yesterday's gains, which followed declines earlier in the week.
