(Reuters) – Wall Street’s major indexes ended Friday’s shortened session lower as U.S.-China discord over Hong Kong fueled investor anxiety about their trade talks and retail stocks dipped as in-store Black Friday sales appeared to draw smaller crowds.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average .DJI fell 112.31 points, or 0.4%, to 28,051.69, the S&P 500 .SPX lost 12.62 points, or 0.40%, to 3,141.01 and the Nasdaq Composite .IXIC dropped 39.70 points, or 0.46%, to 8,665.47.
