“U.S. stocks finished lower on Tuesday, with technology companies dragging down the market ahead of the release of the Federal Reserve’s interest-rate decision on Wednesday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was off 260.32 points, or 0.6%, to end at 41,581.31, according to FactSet data. The S&P 500 tumbled 60.46 points, or 1.1% to finish at 5,614.66. The Nasdaq Composite slumped 304.55 points, or 1.7%, ending at 17,504.12.
