US stocks snapped a three-day rally on Friday as Apple shares dropped following a disappointing forecast and the White House dampened optimism over US-China trade talks.

Apple Inc tumbled 6.6 percent, sending its market value below $1 trillion at the close, a day after the iPhone maker warned that sales for the crucial holiday quarter may miss expectations. Apple in August had become the first publicly listed U.S. company with a $1 trillion market value.

The forecast dragged down shares of Apple's US suppliers, mostly chipmakers, and pushed the S&P technology sector down 1.9 percent.

"The tone was set by Apple's earnings. That's clearly been a headwind all day," said Eric Kuby, chief investment officer, North Star Investment Management Corp, Chicago.
