NEW YORK (Reuters)-The New York Stock Exchange ended up on Wednesday falling on Wednesday, after a session without major movements, while investors learned of the report of the last meeting of the American Federal Reserve (Fed), pending publication after-closing of Nvidia results.

The Dow Jones index sold 0.58%, or 244.95 points, to 42,098.70 points.

The wider S & P-500 lost 32.99 points, or 0.56%, at 5,888.55 points.

The Nasdaq Composite fell on its side from 98.23 points (0.51%) to 19,100.94 points.

The main Wall Street indices marked a withdrawal at the very end of the session, after the Financial Times, citing sources, reported that the administration of US President Donald Trump ordered American firms offering semiconductor design software to no longer sell their products to China.

According to the “minutes” of the FED monetary policy meeting on May 6-7, officials of the American central bank admitted that they may have to make “difficult compromises”, in the coming months, if inflation and unemployment came to increase.

“The market has been going in circles today,” said Peter Cardillo, chief economist of Spartan Capital Securities, in New York. “The Fed minutes have not revealed anything nine.”

The Fed officials “roughly indicated that they were staying in a waiting position, wanting trade clarifications,” he added, while Donald Trump returned to the space of a weekend on his threat of imposing customs duties on June 1 on the European Union products. This turnaround of the White House chief had benefited Tuesday at the main clues of Wall Street, in sharp rise. Despite the gains recorded in recent weeks, the S & P-500 has still not recovered from its hollow in early April, in the wake of the announcement by Donald Trump of large so-called “reciprocal” commercial taxes, which saw the index lose 18.9% compared to its closing record of February 19.

Many market players expect the S & P-500 to end the year at the same level as currently, according to a survey carried out by Reuters with strategists and analysts.

On the values ​​side, Nvidia fell back at the end of the session, recording a 0.5%drop, before the long -awaited publication of its quarterly results.
