US Stocks Mostly Lower
The S&P 500 was down 0.2% and the Dow Jones tumbled almost 550 points while the Nasdaq swung between small gains and losses on Friday, following the previous session’s sharp sell-off.

Microsoft was up 0.6% and Meta fell 0.5%, while American Express dropped 3.7% despite reporting better-than-expected earnings. For the week, the S&P 500 was little changed, while the Nasdaq Composite was down 0.5%. By contrast, the Dow Jones was on track for a weekly gain of around 1.7%.
