At the close, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 0.35% at 44,247.83, while the S&P 500 lost 0.30% to 6,034.91 and the Nasdaq Composite saw out the session 0.25% weaker at 19,687.24.

The Dow opened 154.10 points lower on Tuesday, extending losses recorded in the previous session.

Stocks lacked direction on Tuesday as traders continued to hold out for tomorrow's consumer price index report, which comes just a week before the Federal Reserve's next interest rate decision.

On Tuesday's macro slate, the National Federation of Independent Business' small optimism index jumped to 101.7 in November for the highest reading since June 2021, up from 93.7 in October and ahead of expectations for a reading of 94.2.

In the corporate space, software giant Oracle traded lower after its Q2 earnings and revenue fell short of expectations, and the group issued disappointing guidance, while GameStop reported a surprise Q3 profit despite a 20% drop in sales.
