Wall Street Faces Decline as Investors Brace for Federal Reserve Decisions Amid Tech Sell-Off

U.S. stock markets closed lower as concerns over tariff impacts and the upcoming Federal Reserve meeting weighed heavily on investor sentiment. The Dow Jones fell by over 250 points, contributing to a broader sell-off in major indices including the Nasdaq and S&P 500, which also experienced declines of over 1%. In particular, shares of Nvidia and Tesla performed poorly, with Nvidia down more than 3% following the announcement of new AI superchips and a notable decline in Tesla stock as investors reacted to a price-target cut. Analysts warn of growing recession risks, while futures indicate a cautious start for the markets ahead of pivotal economic data and policy decisions from the Fed.
