Wall St slips on mixed data and earnings


The Dow fell 140.82 points, or 0.32%, to 44,424.25, the S&P 500 lost 17.47 points, or 0.29%, to 6,101.24 and the Nasdaq lost 99.38 points, or 0.50%, to 19,954.30.

NEW YORK: Wall Street's main indices closed lower on Friday as investors stepped back while they digested a mixed bag of economic data and earnings reports and prepared for a week filled with economic releases and a Federal Reserve meeting.

The technology sector was the biggest drag on the market as megacap stocks, including artificial intelligence chip leader Nvidia, reversed a sharp rally earlier in the week.
