Stocks drop 3 percent on jobs and energy

    NEW YORK (Reuters) - The Dow and S&P 500 fell by 3 percent on Friday, as a bleak jobs report showed a further deterioration of the U.S. economy.

    * Top drags include energy shares, with oil prices sliding sharply lower on concerns the recession will curb energy demand.

    * U.S. front-front crude was off $1.75 to $41.92 a barrel.

    * Boeing is among the top drags on the Dow on concerns it will delay airplane deliveries. Exxon Mobil shares fell 3 percent to $73.69 while Chevron shed 3.5 percent to $69.25.
