The major indexes were mixed midday Wednesday, after Tuesday saw losses across the board with the Nasdaq being hit the hardest. Wednesday is the day investors have been looking for, as the Federal Reserve wraps up the two-day June meeting. The questions remain the same as all eyes and ears on Wall Street are focused on Fed Chair Powell and how he spins the inflation concerns, especially after producer prices climbed 6.6% in May, which on an annual basis is the largest 12-month increase on record.
