US stocks mostly rose on Wednesday morning ahead of the Federal Reserve's decision on whether to hike interest rates for the first time in three years.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) dipped below the flat line, while the S&P 500 (^GSPC) rose 0.2%. The Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) gained 0.4%
Stocks searched for gains after ending Tuesday's session lower. A bond sell-off that has pushed the 10-year yield (^TNX) to its highest level since the financial crisis weighed on stock sentiment.
Crypto prices tumbled, meanwhile, after the Senate failed to pass a key procedural vote for a regulatory framework for digital ****** ets, known as the Clarity Act. Bitcoin's price (BTC-USD) dropped below $76,000.
At the same time, rising oil prices have contributed to worries that inflation will remain stubbornly high. Despite a pause in crude oil's rally, benchmark Brent (BZ=F) and WTI (CL=F) futures remain above $100 per barrel.
