The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -0.31% dropped 47 points, or 0.1%, to 33,463, while the S&P 500 SPX, -0.12% was off 0.1% and the Nasdaq Composite COMP, 0.41% was nearly flat. The U.S. Senate on Saturday night, with mere hours left before a midnight deadline for a federal government shutdown, voted to advance a short-term stopgap funding measure, which was then signed by President Joe Biden into law. The bill keeps the government open for 45 more days, an extended period that lawmakers can use to finalize funding legislation.
