US stocks fell, pulling benchmark indexes down from a one-year high. The dollar rose for the first time in five days.

The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index slipped 0.8 percent to 1,087.68, trimming a second straight weekly advance. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 67.03 points, or 0.7 percent, to 9,995.91. The dollar strengthened 0.4 percent against the euro. The Nasdaq composite lost 16.49 to 2,156.80.

“The market is evaluating each bellwether as it comes through and showing its elation or disappointment,” said Philip Orlando, who helps oversee $400 billion as chief equity market strategist at Federated Investors Inc. in New York. “Today, you had disappointing earnings from GE and Bank of America and the market responded accordingly.”

The S&P 500 climbed 1.5 percent this week as better-than-estimated results at JPMorgan Chase and Intel spurred optimism that earnings are recovering from the longest slump since the Great Depression.
