Wall Street. Major U.S. stock-indexes slightly fell

Major U.S. stock-indexes slightluy fell on Thursday due to losses in banks and health sectors, reversing course after earlier inching up enough to notch record intraday highs for the sixth straight session. The six-day streak was sparked a week back by President Donald Trump's vow of a "phenomenal" tax announcement, and fueled by optimism that his plans for corporate deregulation will expand the economy. However, worries have started to surface that Trump so far has provided no substantial details on his plans.

Most of Dow stocks in negative area (16 of 30). Top loser - Chevron Corporation (CVX, -1.33%). Top gainer - Cisco Systems, Inc. (CSCO, +2.86%).

Most of S&P sectors are also in negative area. Top loser - Conglomerates (-0.8%). Top gainer - Utilities (+0.5%).


At the moment:

Dow 20576.00 -47.00 -0.23%

S&P 500 2342.50 -8.00 -0.34%

Nasdaq 100 5297.50 -12.50 -0.24%
