Dec 27 (Reuters) – Wall Street’s holiday cheer ended abruptly on Friday, with all three main benchmarks closing lower in a broad-based sell-off affecting even tech and growth stocks that had driven markets higher through much of the shortened trading week.
The decline ended the Dow Jones Industrial Average’s (.DJI), opens new tab five-session winning streak that had followed a 10-session decline, its worst losing stretch since 1974.
