U.S. Stocks Slightly Lower, Weighed Down by Energy Shares
The S&P 500 inched slightly lower Monday as shares of energy companies fell alongside a decline in oil prices and as investors looked ahead to a busy week of corporate earnings results. The broad stock-market index fell 2.88 points, or 0.1%, to 2798.43, while the technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite dropped 20.26 points, or 0.3%, to 7805.72. Energy stocks were by far the weakest of the S&P 500’s 11 sectors, falling 1.2%, on lower oil prices.
