The Dow Jones industrial average rose 0.2%, and the Nasdaq composite climbed 0.8%. The highlight for Wall Street this week will likely be the Federal Reserve’s meeting on interest rates, which ends Wednesday. The widespread expectation is for the central bank to hold its main interest rate steady at its highest level since 2001.
