US markets slipped on Friday as lower earnings from industralised companies weighed on the market sentiment despite robust growth by technology firms.

Dow Jones Industrial Average index declined below the 10,000-mark to end at 9,972, down 109 points. The Nasdaq was down 11 points at 2,154.

The Indian ADRs also closed mostly in red. MTNL tumbled over 3% to $3.32. Tata Motors dropped over 2% to $11.45. Sterlite, Patni Computers, ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank were down 1-2% each. Dr.Reddy’s, however, surged 3.7% to $20.43.
