Wall Street stocks retreated Wednesday after the Federal Reserve lifted interest rates, while the dollar advanced against the euro.
About 10 minutes after the 1900 GMT Fed announcement, both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq were in negative territory, while the Dow clung to a modest gain. All three indices had been up about one percent shortly before the decision.
The euro fell to USD 1.1396 compared with USD 1.1434 shortly before the Fed decision.
