The main US stock indexes rose significantly, primarily thanks to the rally in the banking segment, triggered by a report that the market misinterpreted yesterday's ECB Draghi comments as "hawks," while shares of technology companies recovered after a two-day sell-off. The indices were also supported by the positive dynamics in the raw materials market.

In addition, investors assessed the data on the US housing market. The index of unfinished transactions for the sale of housing from the National Association of Realtors decreased by 0.8% in May, noting the third month of decline in a row. The index was 108.5 in May, and its April level was revised downward. Economists predicted an increase of 0.8%. The National Association of Realtors continues to blame the supply restriction in the uneven development of the housing market. "The buyer's interest is significant, but there is not enough resources to meet demand," said the chief economist of the group, Lawrence Yun, "prospective buyers are being removed because they are limited in choice and housing prices that are rising too quickly."

Almost all sectors of the S & P index finished trading in positive territory. The leader of growth was the financial sector (+ 1.4%). Decrease showed only the sector of public services (-0,6%).

European stocks closed with losses Tuesday, feeling the weight of a rising euro, as profit warnings and merger concerns also hit the region's equities. The shared currency gained after European Central Bank President Mario Draghi said in a speech in Portugal that "a considerable degree" of stimulus is needed in the eurozone, a step back from the stimulus levels signaled in earlier speeches.

U.S. stocks fell on Tuesday, with major indexes ending near session lows after Senate Republicans delayed a vote on health care legislation and as losses for technology shares deepened. Tuesday marked the second straight daily decline for the Nasdaq. The S&P 500 has fallen in four of the past six sessions while the Dow has dropped in five of the past six.

Stock selling eased in the Asia-Pacific region Wednesday after overnight declines in the U.S. and Europe on worries the European Central Bank would reduce monetary stimulus.
