Stocks traded modestly higher around midday Wednesday, with the U.S. indexes rising ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday.

VMware: The software maker logged higher revenue but dwindling profit. Its shares slipped 1.3% premarket.
Nordstrom: The department-store chain swung to a loss as it offered higher markdowns to clear through excess inventory. Its shares slumped 7.6% premarket.
