Wall Street tumbles at open after Fed and data


    NEW YORK (Reuters) - Stocks slumped at the open on Wednesday after weaker manufacturing data from China and a gloomier growth outlook from the Federal Reserve underscored a lackluster global economic recovery.

    The Dow Jones industrial average lost 170.15 points, or 1.60 percent, to 10,474.10. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index shed 17.37 points, or 1.55 percent, to 1,103.69. The Nasdaq Composite Index dropped 48.52 points, or 2.13 percent, to 2,228.65.
