Investing.com – The Dow opened higher on Wednesday as strong third-quarter results from Boeing (NYSE:BA) helped rally investor confidence, but the S&P 500 and Nasdaq remained lower.

The S&P 500 fell 2 points or 0.10% to 2,737.82 as of 9:40 AM ET (13:40 GMT), while the Dow increased 62 points, or 0.25%, to 25,253.67 and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite was down 18 points, or 0.26%, to 7,418.57.

All three indexes suffered from a sharp selloff on Tuesday after industrial giants Caterpillar (NYSE:CAT) and 3M (NYSE:MMM) reported a dismal outlook.

Boeing surged 2.78% after the company topped analysts’ forecasts on Wednesday for quarterly profit and raised its annual profit-per-share expectation. Meanwhile, United Parcel Service (NYSE:UPS) fell 3.16% after the midpoint of its forecast for full-year EPS settled below consensus and AT&T (NYSE:T) was down 4.55% after its earnings missed estimates.

Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) inched up 0.26% amid news that it is planning to launch its upcoming TV subscription service in more than 100 countries, while Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) gained 1.25% ahead of its earnings release after the market closes.

Elsewhere, Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) dipped 0.11% while Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) decreased 0.36% and Visa (NYSE:V) fell 0.37%.

In commodities, gold futures increased 0.06% to $1,234.20 a troy ounce while crude oil futures surged 1.31% to $67.30 a barrel. The U.S. dollar index, which measures the greenback against a basket of six major currencies, rose 0.45% to 96.14.

We encourage you to use comments to engage with other users, share your perspective and ask questions of authors and each other. However, in order to maintain the high level of discourse we’ve all come to value and expect, please keep the following criteria in mind:  

  •            Enrich the conversation, don’t trash it.

  •           Stay focused and on track. Only post material that’s relevant to the topic being discussed. 

  •           Be respectful. Even negative opinions can be framed positively and diplomatically. Avoid profanity, slander or personal attacks directed at an author or another user. Racism, sexism and other forms of discrimination will not be tolerated.

  • Use standard writing style. Include punctuation and upper and lower cases. Comments that are written in all caps and contain excessive use of symbols will be removed.
  • NOTE: Spam and/or promotional messages and comments containing links will be removed. Phone numbers, email addresses, links to personal or business websites, Skype/Telegram/WhatsApp etc. addresses (including links to groups) will also be removed; self-promotional material or business-related solicitations or PR (ie, contact me for signals/advice etc.), and/or any other comment that contains personal contact specifcs or advertising will be removed as well. In addition, any of the above-mentioned violations may result in suspension of your account.
  • Doxxing. We do not allow any sharing of private or personal contact or other information about any individual or organization. This will result in immediate suspension of the commentor and his or her account.
  • Don’t monopolize the conversation. We appreciate passion and conviction, but we also strongly believe in giving everyone a chance to air their point of view. Therefore, in addition to civil interaction, we expect commenters to offer their opinions succinctly and thoughtfully, but not so repeatedly that others are annoyed or offended. If we receive complaints about individuals who take over a thread or forum, we reserve the right to ban them from the site, without recourse.

  • Any comment you publish, together with your investing.com profile, will be public on investing.com and may be indexed and available through third party search engines, such as Google.
