U.S. stock indexes fell Friday, with much of the downward weight coming from a stumble for highflying Amazon.
The S&P 500 lost 23.89 points, or 0.5%, to close at 4,395.26. But it nevertheless wrapped up its sixth straight month of gains, its longest such streak since 2018, and it’s still within 0.6% of its record high set on Monday.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell 149.06 points, or 0.4%, to 34,935.47, and the Nasdaq composite dropped 105.59 points, or 0.7%, to 14,672.68.
Trading was mixed on Friday, with close to two S&P 500 stocks falling for every one that rose. Losses for banks and energy producers offset some modest gains for real estate companies and raw material producers.
