US stocks are opening mostly lower ahead of a two-day policy meeting at the Federal Reserve.
Investors are cautious over whether the Fed will act again to kick-start the economy, and when it will do so.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell 11 points to 13,063
shortly after the opening bell Tuesday. The broader S&P 500 index lost 0.5 points to 1,385 and Nasdaq gained six points to 2,652.
