The US stocks were mostly lower on Tuesday, 16 March 2021, with the Dow and the S&P 500 ending session lower amid a wait-and-see mood before the announcement of the U. S. Federal Reserve s two-day policy-setting meeting on Wednesday.
At the close of trade, the Dow Jones Industrial Average index declined 127.51 points, or 0.39%, to 32,825.95. The S&P500 index fell 6.23 points, or 0.16%, to 3,962.71. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index added 11.86 points, or 0.09%, to 13,471.57.
The US stock market lacked direction for much of the day, as investors eyes were on the Fed s dot plot chart in which members of the U. S. central bank indicate their interest rate forecasts and remarks by Fed Chairman Jerome Powell at a news conference to be held after the Federal Open Market Committee meeting.

Adidas makes a lot of really good shoes. It also makes some of the worst ones we’ve ever seen, like the skinned dachshund

Created in collaboration with rapper Tommy Cash, the we-guess-you-can-still-kind-of-call-them Superstars are described by Hypebeast as Adidas’ “longest model yet.” This is easy to believe when you see pictures that more closely resemble a pair of lace-covered baguettes than anything you should actually put on your feet.
