NEW YORK, May 5 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks fell on Tuesday as cautious investors fretted about impending bank stress test results and energy shares succumbed to the pressure of lower oil prices.
The drop halted a two-day run-up that had propelled the S&P 500 into positive territory for the year-to-date. The benchmark index had risen 34 percent after touching a 12-year lows in early March.
Selling was seen across the board with big-cap technology companies, banks, home builders and big manufacturers dragging indexes lower. These sectors have all been among the market's bright spots during the two-month rebound.
Shares of energy company Chevron (CVX.N), down 1.4 percent at $65.75, were among the Dow's drags, along with those of No.2 U.S. bank JPMorgan (JPM.N), which ended off 2.7 percent at $34.82.
"There's a little bit of profit-taking today. You're also probably having a bit of a breather going into Thursday, with the stress test results although most people think this will somewhat be a non-event," said John O'Brien, senior vice president at MKM Partners LLC in Cleveland.
The Dow Jones industrial average .DJI dipped 16.09 points, or 0.19 percent, to 8,410.65 points. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index .SPX shed 3.44 points, or 0.38 percent, to 903.80. The Nasdaq Composite Index .IXIC dipped 9.44 points, or 0.54 percent, to 1,754.12.
Shares of software maker Microsoft Corp (MSFT.O), off 2 percent at $19.79, was the Nasdaq's top drag, followed by Hologic Inc (HOLX.O), whose shares plunged 20.2 percent to $12.45, a day after the medical diagnostics maker delayed the U.S. launch of its Tomosynthesis mammography system and posted a quarterly loss.
Procter & Gamble (PG.N) was the Dow's top drag, down 2.4 percent at $49.79, after news of problems at one of its manufacturing plants. For details, see [ID:nN05401624]
DISNEY UP LATE, STRESS TESTS LOOM
After the bell, shares of Walt Disney Co (DIS.N), another Dow component, rose 2 percent to $23.61 after the No. 1 U.S. entertainment company posted a quarterly profit above Wall Street's forecasts.
Disney had ended the regular session up 1.3 percent at $23.15. Continued...
