(Bloomberg) -- U.S. stocks edged lower after closing at all-time highs, as investors grew anxious that the virus will hamper growth for longer than expected and Democrats may struggle to get a nearly $2 trillion spending bill through Congress.The S&P 500 Index fell for the first time in the four-day week, with losses widening on reports that the new virus strain may be deadlier. Oil’s slump dragged energy companies lower, while Intel Corp. dropped after its new boss recommitted to chipmaking, a move opposed by some investors.

Bloomberg’s dollar index rose for the first time in five sessions.Overseas markets struggled after economic data in Europe missed estimates. IHS Markit data showing a pickup in U.S. manufacturing did little to boost sentiment. Senate Republicans continued to come out against Joe Biden’s aid package, threatening the legislation’s passage in the sharply divided body.“The virus numbers are not good right now obviously around the world, especially in the U.S. and in Europe, and we’re also getting a little bit more question about how much of the stimulus is actually feasible and what’s the timeline,” Scott Ladner, chief investment officer at Horizon Investments, said by phone. “Those two things are putting just a damper on the enthusiasm that has existed since November.”This week’s global equity rally, spurred by expectations of economic support and the rollout of vaccines, is pausing as traders weigh still-troubling Covid-19 trends. Biden, who is pushing for $1.9 trillion in additional spending, unveiled a strategy to combat the virus while warning the pandemic will worsen before it improves. Restrictions intensified from Germany and the U.K. to Hong Hong, and the European Central Bank cautioned that the euro area is headed for a double-dip recession.
