The S&P 500 fell 0.5% and the Nasdaq pulled back 0.3%.

Boston Beer slumped nearly 4% after pulling its already lowered profit forecast, while Lululemon jumped 10.5% after reporting results that easily beat forecasts.

The yield on the 10-year Treasury note fell to 1.30% and the price of U.S. crude oil lost 1.7%.
