Analyst Update: Earnings Outcomes and Shareholders Meeting

Reviewed by: Rohit Tuli, CFA(R)

The US stock markets mostly closed lower on Wednesday despite progress in Greece negotiations and dovish Fed minutes. Dow Jones Industrial Average closed down 17.85 points, or 0.10%, at 18,029.85; S&P 500 closed down 0.68 points, or 0.03%, at 2,099.66; Nasdaq closed up 7.10 points, or 0.14%, at 4,906.36. European stocks ended mostly higher and rose to seven-year high amid Greek deal prospects, as Greece is expected to submit a loan request on Thursday to extend a loan agreement for up to six months. The FTSEuroFirst 300 index rose 0.7% to a fresh seven-year high of 1,515.90. On the other hand, most Asian stocks advanced on Wednesday due to investor optimism ahead of a European Central Bank meeting on bailout conditions for Greece, though many markets of the region were shut for the Lunar New Year.
