US stocks showed a mixed performance during the trading sessions today, as the US companies continued announcing their quarterly earnings reports amid the growing Brexit uncertainty after the latest deal was rejected by the parliament.

 

The British Parliament voted on Tuesday against the prime minister proposed fast-track timetable to conclude the Brexit.

 

Which increased division and uncertainty on the British market over whether Johnson's next move will be a request for another Brexit deadline until the end of January or a call for early elections before the end of the year.

 

Major US companies such as Snapchat and Boeing reported their quarterly earnings reports for the third quarter, with close anticipation for Microsoft's report later today.

 

As of 14:23 GMT, Dow Jones rose by 0.2% or 45 points to 26,832, and S&P 500 held at 2,997, while Nasdaq fell by 0.1% or 8 points to 8,096.
