U.S. stocks fell, halting a seven-day rally in the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index, while gold slid the most since July and Treasuries erased early gains as investors weighed prospects for Federal Reserve stimulus. Oil climbed ahead of U.S.-Russian talks on Syria.

 

The Dow dropped 25 points to 15300 and the S&P 500 lost 5 points, 0.3 percent, to 1,683.42, retreating from the highest level in almost a month. Gold for December delivery dropped 2.4 percent to $1,330.60 an ounce, while oil rose 1 percent. Treasury 10-year note yields were little changed at 2.91 percent, after dropping five basis points earlier, and German bund rates slid five basis points to 2.00 percent. Japan’s currency climbed 0.4 percent to 99.45 per dollar. The Australian dollar fell for the first time in a week and the nation’s bonds rallied after unemployment rose.

 

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry will press for a timeline for Syria to surrender its chemical weapons, an American official said, as Russia’s leader urged the U.S. to steer clear of a Middle East military clash. The Fed will  probably taper its monthly bond buying by $10 billion at its Sept. 17-18 meeting to $75 billion, based on the median of 34 economists’ estimates collated by Bloomberg News.
