 Major United States equity indexes ended softer today as investors moved cautiously ahead of the Federal Reserve policy decision, with the Standard and Poor's five hundred down zero point one percent, the Dow Jones Industrial Average down zero point three percent or one hundred twenty five points, and the Nasdaq Composite also down zero point one percent. Today’s trading was marked by profit taking in many large technology and growth names, as anticipation built for guidance from Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell and the first interest rate projections, known as the dot plot, since June. Notably, the Standard and Poor's five hundred held near its recent records while overall market volatility was low with the VIX index in the mid-teens.

According to Saxo Bank, notable laggards included chipmakers, with Nvidia off by one point six percent amid renewed antitrust headlines out of China. Microsoft dipped one point two percent, and Palantir eased zero point six percent. On the positive side, Oracle climbed one point five percent after reports of a United States–China social media framework. Sector-wise, technology and discretionary stocks were modest decliners, while utilities and healthcare were among mild gainers.

Among the most actively traded names today were Tesla, Nvidia, Microsoft, and Apple. The biggest percentage loser in the S and P five hundred was Nvidia. Oracle stood out as one of the day’s leading gainers. Headlines around the Federal Reserve’s expected move—a twenty five basis point cut, its first since December twenty twenty four—dominated trader focus, with the official announcement and updated economic projections due this afternoon, followed by Jerome Powell’s press conference. In economic data, August building permits came in at one million three hundred twelve thousand and housing starts fell by eight point five percent, both softer than forecasts, adding to speculation that the Fed may start to ease further this year.

Looking ahead, futures trading late in the session suggested a slightly flat to lower open for tomorrow as investors wait for the impact of the Federal Reserve’s statement and forecasts. Key events in focus for Thursday include initial jobless claims, the Philadelphia Fed manufacturing index, and earnings from FedEx and Lennar, both seen as important signals for transportation and housing. Other upcoming catalysts this week include consumer sentiment data and the durable goods report, both likely to inform market views on the pace of economic growth and inflation.
