NEW YORK - The benchmark S&P 500 stock index paused on Tuesday, taking a breather from Monday’s strong quarterly kickoff as a decline in shares of Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc weighed and economic data did little to ease growth concerns.
Walgreens shares weighed the most on all three of Wall Street’s major indexes. CVS and the drug wholesalers were also among the biggest drags on the S&P 500.Data showing that new orders for key U.S.-made capital goods slipped in February and that shipments were flat did little to lift tepid investor sentiment.
