Major indexes edged lower and bond yields rose. The 10-year Treasury yield was up four basis points to 4.326%. Earnings season on Wall Street continues to gain steam, with <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/stocks/snap-stock">Snap</a>, <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/stocks/amd-stock">Advanced Micro Devices</a>, and Google parent <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/stocks/googl-stock">Alphabet</a> among the major tech firms set to report earnings after the bell.

"As we enter 2025, the case for skipping or pausing is likely to build. The Fed will be closer to estimates of neutral, a repeat of residual seasonality could lift inflation early next year, and the election outcome could add to hawkish risks for the Fed," Deutsche Bank analysts said in a note on Wednesday.Here's where US indexes stood shortly after the 9:30 a.m. opening bell on Tuesday:<ul><li><a target="_blank" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/index/s&amp;p_500?utm_source=markets&amp;utm_medium=ingest%3Futm_source%3Dmarkets&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets">S&amp;P 500</a>: 5,802.94, down 0.35%</li><li><a target="_blank" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/index/dow_jones?utm_source=markets&amp;utm_medium=ingest%3Futm_source%3Dmarkets&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets">Dow Jones Industrial Average</a>: 42,184.05, down 0.48% (-203.52 points)</li><li><a target="_blank" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/index/nasdaq_composite?utm_source=markets&amp;utm_medium=ingest%3Futm_source%3Dmarkets&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets">Nasdaq composite</a>: 18,523.71, down 0.23%</li></ul>Here's what else is going on:<ul><li>Here's how a <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/market-impact-presidential-election-scenarios-trump-harris-stocks-bonds-crypto-2024-10?_gl=1*1qvmmw6*_ga*OTI1ODIwOTQ2LjE3MTYzOTg2NjU.*_ga_E21CV80ZCZ*MTczMDIwNTI2My40OTMuMS4xNzMwMjA4NDgwLjQuMC4w">Trump or Harris presidency</a> could impact your investments.</li><li>The <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/election-betting-odds-trump-vs-harris-polymarket-kalshi-robinhood-2024-10">election-betting market</a> has exploded this presidential cycle.</li><li><a target="_blank" class="" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/trump-media-djt-truth-social-election-madison-square-garden-rally-2024-10">Trump Media and Technology stock embarked on a meme-like rally</a> after Trump's Madison Square Garden event.
