Stocks fell at the open on Friday, putting the S&P on track for a third straight decline and its worst weekly retreat in five months, as the euro zone crisis extended its reach and investors fretted over a looming U.S. "fiscal cliff." In early trading, the Dow Jones industrial average slipped 64. 66 points, or 0. 50 percent, to 12,746.66. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index lost 4. 11 points, or 0. 30 percent, to 1,373.40. The Nasdaq Composite Index fell 5. 42 points, or 0. 19 percent, to 2,890.16.
