NEW YORK, Aug. 1 (Xinhua) -- U.S. stocks tumbled Friday, weighed down by a weaker-than-expected jobs report that signaled a cooling labor market and growing investor unease over the Trump administration's erratic trade policies.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 542.4 points, or 1.23 percent, to 43,588.58. The S&P 500 declined 1.6 percent to 6,238.01, and the Nasdaq Composite slid 2.24 percent to 20,650.13.
