Market overview 2023-08-16

At Wednesday's trading the U.S. stock market showed another day of restrained decline in the main stock indices. Trading volumes remained at an average level, which was an obvious consequence of the absence of obvious news on the market. The market is in "calm August" and seems to be losing positions only under its own weight. All the sectors, except for the Housing and Utilities sector showed a concerted decline within the values of the general market decline.
