(Reuters) - U.S. stocks slipped at the open on Thursday on worries of a looming trade war with the European Union that outweighed optimism over renewed efforts in Italy to form a government.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 46.99 points, or 0.19 percent, at the open to 24,620.79. The S&P 500 opened lower by 3.03 points, or 0.11 percent, at 2,720.98. The Nasdaq Composite dropped 6.87 points, or 0.09 percent, to 7,455.58 at the opening bell.
