How major US stock indexes fared Friday
Technology companies led a broad slide in stocks on Wall Street Friday as investors worry about the potential for another escalation in the trade war between the U.S. and China.
The selling, which reversed an early gain, followed a report by Bloomberg saying that the Trump administration is considering ways to limit U.S. investments in China. The S&P 500 ended with its second straight weekly loss.
