The major US stock indexes finished trading near zero, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average surpassing 23,000 for the first time, thanks to a more than 6 percent increase in UnitedHealth (UNH) shares and a more than 3 percent increase in Johnson & Johnson (JNJ ).

Certain support for the market was also provided by favorable data for the United States. The Bureau of Employment Accounting reported that in September, import prices in the US rose by 0.7 percent, which is the largest monthly increase since the increase of 0.7 percent in June 2016. Last time, import prices increased by more than 0.7 percent in May 2016 (then growth was 1.2 percent). Higher prices for imports of both fuel and non-fuel materials contributed to a general increase in import prices for September. Import prices in the US also increased on a 12-month basis, reaching 2.7 percent.

Meanwhile, the Fed said that industrial production in the US rose in September, as the effects of hurricanes Harvey and Irma began to disappear, and construction and utility production were restored. Industrial production increased by 0.3% after it decreased by 0.7% in August (revised from -0.9%.) Nevertheless, the July release was revised to -0.1% from +0.4 The economists predicted that in September industrial production will grow by 0.3%, while the total production growth increased by 0.2 percentage points to 76.0% from the revised 75.8% in August.

At the same time, the confidence of builders in the market of newly built houses for one family increased by four points to 68 in October, according to the housing market index (HMI) from the National Association of House Builders (NAHB) / Wells Fargo. This was the highest rate since May.

Most components of the DOW index finished trading in the red (17 of 30). Outsider were the shares of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (GS, -2.69%). The leader of growth was UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (UNH, + 6.06%).

Most sectors of the S & P index recorded a decline. The largest decrease was shown in the financial sector (-0.4%). The healthcare sector grew most (+ 0.9%).

DJIA + 0.17% 22,996.69 +39.73

Nasdaq -0.01% 6,623.66 -0.35

S & P + 0.07% 2.559.35 +1.71

Builder confidence in the market for newly-built single-family homes rose four points to a level of 68 in October on the National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index (HMI). This was the highest reading since May.

"This month's report shows that home builders are rebounding from the initial shock of the hurricanes," said NAHB Chairman Granger MacDonald, a home builder and developer from Kerrville, Texas. "However, builders need to be mindful of long-term repercussions from the storms, such as intensified material price increases and labor shortages."

The rates of change for July and August were notably revised; the current estimate for July, a decrease of 0.1 percent, was 0.5 percentage point lower than previously reported, while the estimate for August, a decrease of 0.7 percent, was 0.2 percentage point higher than before. The estimates for manufacturing, mining, and utilities were each revised lower in July. The continued effects of Hurricane Harvey and, to a lesser degree, the effects of Hurricane Irma combined to hold down the growth in total production in September by 1/4 percentage point.

Capacity utilization for the industrial sector increased 0.2 percentage point in September to 76.0 percent, a rate that is 3.9 percentage points below its long-run (1972-2016) average.

U.S. import prices increased 0.7 percent in September, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today, after advancing 0.6 percent in August. The price index for U.S. exports rose 0.8 percent in September, after increasing 0.7 percent the previous month.
Hurricanes Harvey and Irma had a small impact on the collection of the import and export price index data for September, but no change in the estimation procedures.

The ZEW Indicator of Economic Sentiment for Germany continued to improve in October 2017, however, not as strongly as in the previous month. The indicator currently stands at 17.6 points, which corresponds to an increase of 0.6 points compared with the September result. The indicator, however, still remains below the long-term average of 23.8 points.

The improved outlook for the coming six months is not least the result of the surprisingly positive growth figures seen in the previous months. In August, figures for both production and incoming orders were significantly better than expected. The framework conditions for German exports, which have already seen a significant rise, are further improved by positive growth figures for Europe.

Euro area annual inflation was 1.5% in September 2017, stable compared with August 2017. In September 2016 the rate was 0.4%. European Union annual inflation was 1.8% in September 2017, up from 1.7% in August 2017. A year earlier the rate was 0.4%. These figures come from Eurostat, the statistical office of the European Union.

The lowest annual rates were registered in Cyprus (0.1%), Ireland (0.2%) and Finland (0.8%). The highest annual rates were recorded in Lithuania (4.6%), Estonia (3.9%) and Latvia (3.0%). Compared with August 2017, annual inflation rose in eleven Member States, remained stable in seven and fell in nine.

UK House prices grew by 5% in the year to August 2017, experiencing a 0.5 percentage point increase from the previous month.

In terms of housing demand the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors' (RICS) residential market survey for August 2017 reported that headline price expectations remain subdued in the near term. However, at the 12-month horizon, prime central London remains the only area in which prices expectations are negative. In terms of demand, there was little change in buyer enquires during August, continuing a streak of flat or modestly negative readings into a ninth consecutive month.

The headline rate of inflation for goods leaving the factory gate (output prices) rose 3.3% on the year to September 2017, from 3.4% in August 2017.

Prices for materials and fuels (input prices) rose 8.4% on the year to September 2017, which is unchanged from August 2017.

Upward contributions from energy were offset by downward contributions from other industries, resulting in little change in the annual rates for both input and output prices.

Core output inflation was 2.5% on the year to September 2017, which is unchanged since July 2017.

The Consumer Prices Index including owner occupiers' housing costs (CPIH) 12-month inflation rate was 2.8% in September 2017, up from 2.7% in August 2017; it was last higher in March 2012.

The main contributors to the increase in the rate were rising prices for food and recreational goods, along with transport costs, which fell by less than they did a year ago.

These upward effects were partially offset by downward contributions from a range of goods and services, in particular clothing prices, which rose by less than they did a year ago.

The Consumer Prices Index (CPI) 12-month rate was 3.0% in September 2017, up from 2.9% in August 2017; it was last higher in March 2012.
