Plunge in commodities puts drag on stocks in U.S. markets
NEW YORK, April 15 () -- U.S. stock indexes tumbled hard Monday as plunging commodity prices gave investors second thoughts about potentially over-valued equities.Just two trading sessions after the Dow Jones industrial average and the Standard and Poor's 500 closed at all-time highs, the indexes took a sudden dive. The DJIA gave up 265.86 points, or 1.79 percent, to 14,599.20, the sharpest one-day drop since November. The S&P 500 gave up 2.3 percent, or 36.49 points, to 1,552.36. The tech-oriented Nasdaq composite shed 2.38 percent, 78.46 points, to 3,216.49.On the New York Stock Exchange, 383 stocks advanced and 2,709 declined on a volume of 4.6 billion shares traded.The selloff started in Asia. The Shanghai composite index in China lost 1.13 percent after the government said the gross domestic product rose 7.7 percent in the first quarter following 7.9 percent growth in the fourth quarter of 2012.The slower growth figure surprised analysts. The consensus forecast called for 8 percent growth from January through March.Markets were down in Japan, Australia and Hong Kong and across Europe.Commodities generally take a back seat to equities.

NYMEX West Texas Intermediate crude oil lost $3.63 and settled at $87.66 per barrel.The 10-year U.S. treasury note rose 12/32 to yield 1.688 percent.Against the dollar, the euro was lower at $1.304 from Friday's $1.3115.
