NEW YORK, Nov 2 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks snapped a three-day rally on Friday as Apple shares dropped following a disappointing forecast and the White House dampened optimism over U.S.-China trade talks.
Apple Inc AAPL.O tumbled 6.6 percent, sending its market value below $1 trillion at the close, a day after the iPhone maker warned that sales for the crucial holiday quarter may miss expectations. Apple in August had become the first publicly listed U.S. company with a $1 trillion market value. forecast dragged down shares of Apple's U.S. suppliers, mostly chipmakers, and pushed the S&P technology sector .SPLRCT down 1.9 percent.
"The tone was set by Apple's earnings. That's clearly been a headwind all day," said Eric Kuby, chief investment officer, North Star Investment Management Corp, Chicago.
Kuby also cited weak earnings from Kraft Heinz as having an effect on the broader market. "With Kraft, you have two different types of companies that were disappointing," he said.
Remarks by White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow on CNBC about trade talks with China also dampened the mood. While President Donald Trump will meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping this month, he has not asked U.S. officials to draw up a proposed trade plan, Kudlow said, contradicting a report earlier in the day that had buoyed hopes of a trade dispute resolution. extended losses following Kudlow's comments, and the trade-sensitive S&P 500 industrial index .SPLRCI , which was up earlier in the session, closed down 0.3 percent.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average .DJI fell 109.91 points, or 0.43 percent, to 25,270.83, the S&P 500 .SPX lost 17.31 points, or 0.63 percent, to 2,723.06, and the Nasdaq Composite .IXIC dropped 77.06 points, or 1.04 percent, to 7,356.99.

Economic data was healthy, with the Labor Department's payrolls report showing job growth rebounded sharply in October, pointing to further labor market tightening that could encourage the Federal Reserve to raise benchmark interest rates in December. of Kraft Heinz Co KHC.O fell 9.7 percent after the company missed quarterly earnings estimates and cited steep commodity costs, other expenses and pricing promotions that overshadowed higher-than-expected sales. earnings reports were more upbeat.
Chevron Corp (NYSE:CVX) CVX.N gained 3.2 percent after reporting its quarterly profit doubled on record oil and gas production. Corp SBUX.O shares hit a record high and closed up 9.7 percent, a day after the coffee chain reported strong sales in the United States and China. third-quarter results have been stronger than expected, with about 78 percent of the reports so far beating analysts' estimates, according to I/B/E/S data from Refinitiv.
