July 23 (Reuters) - Wall Street's main indexes fell at the
open on Thursday as data showed the number of Americans filing
for unemployment benefits rose last week for the first time in
nearly four months, suggesting a recovery in the labor market
was stalling.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average .DJI fell 49.87 points,
or 0.18%, at the open to 26,955.97. The S&P 500 .SPX opened
lower by 4.38 points, or 0.13%, at 3,271.64, while the Nasdaq
Composite .IXIC dropped 16.62 points, or 0.16%, to 10,689.50
at the opening bell.
