US: Wall St flat at open day after Fed meeting

[NEW YORK] US stocks opened little changed on Thursday, a day after the Federal Reserve's lowered expectations of two interest rate hikes in 2016 pushed the S&P 500 to its highest close this year.

The Dow Jones industrial average rose 4.52 points, or 0.03 per cent, to 17,330.28, the S&P 500 lost 0.65 points, or 0.03 per cent, to 2,026.57 and the Nasdaq composite dropped 11.46 points, or 0.24 per cent, to 4,752.51.
