New York: US stocks ended lower Friday after their recent record streak of gains as the first monthly decline in US nonfarm jobs in seven years dampened sentiment and pharmacy shares declined.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 16.94 points, or 0.07%, to 22,758.45.

The S&P 500 lost 5.12 points, or 0.20%, to 2,546.95.

The Nasdaq Composite dropped 1.43 points, or 0.02%, to 6,583.93.
