How the major stock indexes fared on Wednesday

Disappointing forecasts from technology companies and an unexpected drop in home construction added to worries about the economy and sent stocks modestly lower. The drop came a day after major stock indicators closed at 13-month highs. Forecasts from software makers Autodesk Inc. and Salesforce.com fell short of analysts expectations. Meanwhile, the government said construction of homes and apartments fell 10.6 percent in October, a steeper drop than expected.
