(Reuters) - U.S. stocks declined on Monday for their worst performance in nearly a month, weighed down by a pullback in the financial and consumer discretionary sectors, as some investors booked profits on the heels of a record-setting week.
The Dow Jones industrial average <.DJI> fell 54.24 points, or 0.28 percent, to 19,097.9, the S&P 500 <.SPX> lost 11.63 points, or 0.53 percent, to 2,201.72 and the Nasdaq Composite <.IXIC> dropped 30.11 points, or 0.56 percent, to 5,368.81.
