A hawkish stance adopted by the US Fed, which left its benchmark rates unchanged this time, further weighed on stocks. Nasdaq underperformed broader indices, after index heavyweight Apple retreated 0.3%, as the company’s Q2-17 revenue and guidance for current quarter came in below market expectations. European stocks held at a 20-month high as a rally in drug makers offset weakness in Natural Resources stocks. European suppliers of Apple led losses in technology shares. While Japan and Hong Kong exchanges were closed for a holiday, Chinese benchmark retreated 0.3% on lingering worries over tougher regulations. GCC GCC markets ended mostly lower yesterday, after Brent crude fell in the gulf session. Saudi markets declined 0.6%, while an interview with the top economic policy official, the Saudi Crown Prince has little impact on the market. Advanced Petrochemical Co. fell 2.5%, after reporting downbeat net income for Q1-17. Dubai markets dropped 0.5%, led by losses in GFH Financial Co, as the markets had already priced in the strong earnings posted by the firm yesterday. Abu Dhabi’s benchmark added 0.6%, as its largest listed lender, First Abu Dhabi Bank, climbed 1.4%. Qatar Qatari markets inched 0.4% lower, driven by increased net selling on the part of local retail and gulf institutional investors. Selling pressure was largely seen in Telecommunications sector, as sector heavyweight Ooredoo dropped 2.3%, after UAE-based Etisalat joined hands with Saudi Telecom and Kuwait's Zain Group in bidding for third mobile operator in Oman, where the company’s unit is expected to face tough competition. Volumes rose with Banking, Real estate and Telecom sectors accounting for almost 83% of the total trades.
