US close: S&P 500 retreats from last week's record close
(Sharecast News) - Stocks were lower at the closing bell on Monday as the S&P 500 came off its third consecutive winning week. At the close, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 0.54% at 44,401.93, while the S&P 500 lost 0.61% to 6,052.85 and the Nasdaq Composite saw out the session 0.62% weaker at 19,736.69.
The Dow closed 240.59 points lower on Monday, extending losses recorded in the previous session on the back of a November jobs report that pointed to stronger-than-expected growth last month.
While last month's non-farm payrolls report revealed payrolls had risen by 227,000, a significant increase from October's upwardly revised print of 36,000, it failed to hurt expectations of a 25-basis point interest rate cut from the Federal Reserve when it next convenes on 17 and 18 December.
Later in the week, investors will pay strict attention to November's consumer price index on Wednesday, as well as Thursday's producer price index, as traders hope to gain further insight into the Federal Reserve's thinking going into its two-day policy meeting next week.
On Monday's macro slate, wholesale inventories rose 0.2% month-on-month to $905.0bn in October, according to the Census Bureau, in line with preliminary estimates. Non-durables stocks increased by 0.3%, while durable inventories ticked up 0.1%.
In the corporate space, Nvidia shares were lower after China announced that it had launched an investigation in to the AI darling for potential violations of the country's anti-monopoly laws.
No major earnings were released on Monday.
