How the Dow Jones industrials and other major stock indexes fared in Friday's trading
Investors dumped stocks and locked in profits Friday after the glow of a week full of strong earnings reports faded. The retreat came as cautious forecasts from railroads caused unease about the economy and a rising dollar pushed prices of commodities lower, which hurt materials and energy stocks. Traders appeared eager to collect gains after stock indexes rose more than 6 percent in the three weeks leading into Friday.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell 109.13, or 1.1 percent, to 9,972.18.
The Standard & Poor's 500 index fell 13.31, or 1.2 percent, to 1,079.60.
The Nasdaq composite index fell 10.82, or 0.5 percent, to 2,154.47.
For the week:
The Dow is down 23.73, or 0.2 percent.
The S&P is down 8.08, or 0.7 percent.
The Nasdaq is down 2.33, or 0.1 percent.
For the year:
The Dow is up 1,195.79, or 13.6 percent.
The S&P is up 176.35, or 19.5 percent.
The Nasdaq is up 577.44, or 36.6 percent.
