On Wednesday US tech sector companies closed with a mix of gains and losses. There is still a large amount of uncertainty going on between investors and analysts about easing on government bond buying program. One serious indicator of whether economy is ready for a stimulus reduction is the Q1 GDP data which should be available one hour before the US stock market opens today.

Despite the decline of Nasdaq tech index by 0.61% some of the companies in the industry have managed to record a gain in their price share. Apple closed at a gain of 0.80% following their CEO appearance on Tuesday night at the D11 conference sponsored by AllThings D technology blog. Cook stated Apple was “incredibly interested” in wearable technology but didnt say much about what product company is working on.

Hewlett-Packard Co. recorded gain of 2.39%, Western Digital Corp. climbed by 1.38%, Cisco continued its upward movement with 0.96% and IBMs price shares remained almost unchanged with a slight raise of 0.07%.

On the losers side numerous companies shares dropped which offsets the gainers. Among those were Facebook dipping with 3.24% after the company failed to acquire social mapping and navigation company Waze.

Amazon Inc. lost 0.66% share price. The company is launching 5 shows produced by Amazon Studios.
