NEW YORK - Wall Street stocks declined on Thursday as investors weighed somewhat better news on US-China trade talks against new revelations in the impeachment probe of US President Donald Trump.
Karl Haeling of LBBW said the market's response to the whistleblower complaint suggested the risk of impeachment could be somewhat higher than initially thought, but added that the modest losses showed markets remained"stable."The Dow Jones Industrial Average finished down 0.3 per cent at 26,891.12. Beyond Meat surged 11.6 per cent as McDonald's announced it would launch a 12-week test in Canada of a new plant-based patty made by Beyond Meat. McDonald's shares ended flat.
