Major US stock indices showed mixed dynamics on Wednesday: Nasdaq fell more than 1%, S & P almost did not change, and the Dow grew moderately. Investors sold technological shares and switched to financial assets, which received a strong impetus due to economic data and comments from Fed officials regarding future rate increases.

As it became known, economic growth in the US in the third quarter was stronger than previously thought, while corporate profits recovered during the summer months. Gross domestic product, a wide range of goods and services created in the US, in the third quarter increased by 3.3%, seasonally adjusted and adjusted for inflation, in the third quarter, the Ministry of Commerce said.

Meanwhile, unfinished transactions for the sale of housing increased by 3.5% in October, but remained 0.6% lower than a year ago, the National Association of Realtors reported. Economists predicted an increase in the index by 1% in October. The value of the index in October was 109.3, where the level of 100 was the same as the average level of contract activity during 2001. The indicator for September changed slightly, to 105.6.

Most components of the DOW index finished the session in positive territory (20 out of 30). The leader of growth was UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (UNH, + 3.05%). Outsider were shares of Visa Inc. (V, -3.37%).

The sectors of the S & P index showed mixed dynamics. The financial sector grew most (+ 0.7%). The largest losses were recorded in the technological sector (-2.1%).

Pending home sales rebounded strongly in October following three straight months of diminishing activity, but still continued their recent slide of falling behind year ago levels, according to the National Association of Realtors. All major regions except for the West saw an increase in contract signings last month.

The Pending Home Sales Index, a forward-looking indicator based on contract signings, rose 3.5 percent to 109.3 in October from a downwardly revised 105.6 in September. The index is now at its highest reading since June (110.0), but is still 0.6 percent below a year ago.

U.S. stock-index futures were flat on Wednesday, a day after progress on a U.S. tax bill pushed stocks to record levels.

Real gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annual rate of 3.3 percent in the third quarter of 2017, according to the "second" estimate released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. In the second quarter, real GDP increased 3.1 percent.

The GDP estimate released today is based on more complete source data than were available for the "advance" estimate issued last month. In the advance estimate, the increase in real GDP was 3.0 percent.

With this second estimate for the third quarter, the general picture of economic growth remains the same; nonresidential fixed investment, state and local government spending, and private inventory investment were revised up from the prior estimate.

The price index for gross domestic purchases increased 1.8 percent in the third quarter, compared with an increase of 0.9 percent in the second quarter. The PCE price index increased 1.5 percent, compared with an increase of 0.3 percent. Excluding food and energy prices, the PCE price index increased 1.4 percent, compared with an increase of 0.9 percent

In November 2017, the harmonised index of consumer prices for Germany, which is calculated for European purposes, is expected to increase by 1.8% year on year. Compared with October 2017, it is expected to be up by 0.3%.

Lending to households and private non-financial corporations (PNFCs) was £3.8 billion, broadly in line with the previous month.

House purchase mortgage approvals fell slightly to 64,575 in October. The annual growth rate of consumer credit was broadly unchanged at 9.6% in October.

The UBS consumption indicator inched up to 1.54 points in October from a corrected September figure of 1.51. New registrations for passenger cars and domestic tourism shored up the indicator.

The benchmark also was lifted by major oil companies after Royal Dutch Shell-an industry bellwether-provided an upbeat outlook, seen as demonstrating the worst of the crude-price slump is behind the sector.

US Stocks closed at records Tuesday after bouncing around during the regular session as geopolitical tensions and domestic developments pulled the market in different directions. All three main indexes had traded in record territory earlier but came off highs as North Korea tested a ballistic missile for the first time in more than two months. But the indexes soon regained lost ground after a Republican tax proposal moved a step closer to a Senate vote.

Chinese and Hong Kong stocks fell again after initial Wednesday morning gains, as investors in Asia largely shrugged off North Korea's latest missile launch. But some market focus has drifted temporarily from equities, as bitcoin cracked $10,000 for the first time in Asian trading. It is up more than 20% since Friday as the cryptocurrency has increasingly become mainstream. It was recently at $10,256.79, according to research site CoinDesk.
