U.S. stocks fell the most in three weeks, as better-than-forecast

economic data and comments by Federal Reserve officials bolstered

bets for an interest-rate increase this year.

The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index declined 1 percent to 2,104.20 at 4

p.m. in New York, after a third straight weekly advance. The Dow Jones

Industrial Average sank 190.48 points, or 1 percent, to 18,041.54. The

Dow ended a six-session stretch without a 100-point intraday swing,

the longest in almost a year. The Nasdaq Composite Index lost 1.1

percent.

Better-than-estimated increases in capital goods orders and new-home

sales came after Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen indicated the

central bank will raise borrowing costs this year if the economy

improves as she expects.

European stocks posted their longest losing streak in three weeks as

U.S. data and comments by Federal Reserve officials stoked concern

of a rate increase.

NEWSWORTHY

This caught our attention..

DATE CODE COMPANY ANNOUNCEMENTStrict Loan Policies will Slow Booming

Property Market

In a report released by Australian banking giant Australia

and New Zealand Banking Group (ASX:ANZ), the property

market appears to be cooling off due to more strict loan

policies. ANZ economists David Cannington and Felicity

Emmett say it is difficult to quantify the exact affect of the

policies, but that it will surely influence the supply of

mortgages to some degree. In the recent months, the

Reserve Bank of Australia has shown concern over the

rapidly growing property market, especially in the Sydney

property market.
