		</div><p>A seven-day winning streak for stocks came to a quiet end on Tuesday as banks, especially smaller ones, dropped along with bond yields and interest rates. Investors snapped up government bonds and high-yield stocks including phone companies and utilities.</p>
<p>As bond prices rose, yields and interest rates fell. That reduced the profits financial institutions can make from mortgages and other types of loans.</p>
<p>Energy companies fell to their lowest prices in a year. Technology companies continued to soar while airlines slumped as investors worried that the government could expand a ban on laptops in passenger cabins during international flights, which could affect business travel.<br />
Still, stocks remain close to their record highs.</p>
<p>The Standard &#038; Poor&#8217;s 500 index lost 2.91 points, or 0.%, to 2,412.91. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 50.81 points, or 0.2%, to 21,029.47. The Nasdaq composite dipped 7 points, or 0.1%, to 6,203.19. The Russell 2000 index of smaller-company stocks tumbled 11.05 points, or 0.8%, to 1,371.19.</p>
<p>Bond prices rose. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note fell to 2.21% from 2.25% late Friday.<br />
With interest rates falling, JPMorgan Chase declined 1.46 dollars, or 1.7%, to 83.90 dollars. Smaller banks fell harder, as Hope Bancorp dropped 67 cents, or 3.7%, to 17.48 dollars and First Financial Bancorp sank 75 cents, or 2.9% to 25.05 dollars.</p>
<p>Oil prices recovered from an early stumble and finished only slightly lower, but energy companies continued to fall. Hess dropped 1.47 dollars, or 3.1%, to 46.67 dollars and Schlumberger shed 85 cents, or 1.2%, to 68.74 dollars. The S&#038;P 500 index of energy companies reached its lowest level in a year.</p>
<p>The dollar declined to 110.78 yen from 111.19 yen. The euro rose to 1.1188 dollars from 1.1176 dollars.<br />
The FTSE 100 index in Britain fell 0.3% and the French CAC 40 sank 0.6%. Germany&#8217;s DAX dipped 0.2%. In Japan, the Nikkei 225 finished nearly flat and South Korea&#8217;s Kospi dropped 0.4%. Markets in Hong Kong were closed for a holiday.</p>
