Wall Street falls on weak data; commodities drop


    NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. stocks had their biggest slide in a month on Monday after regional manufacturing data dented optimism about the economy's health and resource shares fell alongside commodity prices, pressured by a stronger U.S. dollar.

    The Dow Jones industrial average dropped 187.13 points, or 2.13 percent, to close unofficially at 8,612.13. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index fell 22.49 points, or 2.38 percent, to end unofficially at 923.72. The Nasdaq Composite Index lost 42.42 points, or 2.28 percent, to finish unofficially at 1,816.38.
