Wall Street opens lower as political uncertainty weighs

U.S. stocks opened lower on Monday as investors sought fresh catalysts after a strong jobs report last week, while uncertainty over President Donald Trump's policies continued to weigh. Investors are wary about Trump's focus on isolationist policies including travel restrictions to the United States. "The market is looking for direction from the White House on policy," said Albert Brenner, director of asset allocation strategy at People's United Wealth Management in Bridgeport, Connecticut.
