The downgrade by Fitch Ratings ignited a new round of selling in equities that were already lower after lackluster U.S. economic data injected a note of caution ahead of long holiday weekends in both the United States and the UK.
Fitch downgraded Spain's credit rating to AA-plus, and said it expects the country's adjustment to a lower debt level will materially reduce its rate of economic growth over the medium-term.
Fitch cited an inflexible labor market and a restructuring of regional and local savings banks as hindrances to the pace of adjustment.
"This should exacerbate the tremendous volatility we've seen in global stocks as the world wrestles with the idea of a debt-based collapseNFL jersey," said Chip Hanlon, president of Delta Global Advisors in Huntington Beach, California.
"Adding to this is the fact that no one wants to be long over a holiday weekend."
The euro fell as low as $1.2284, according to electronic trading platform EBS, near a session of $1.2281.
The euro also dropped versus the yenMLB jersey, and was last down 0.9 percent at 111.59 yen.
The major U.S. stock indexes shed more than 1 percent, and U.S. Treasuries slightly extended gains, hitting session highs after the Fitch downgrade. Benchmark 10-year notes were last up 18/32 in price, yielding 3.30 percent.
Investors had been shunning risk even before the Fitch downgrade on Spain.
A Commerce Department report that U.S. consumer spending failed to rise in April after six straight months of gainsNBA jersey, cast a cloud over the outlook for the consumer-driven U.S. economy. Traders were particularly cautious ahead of long holiday weekends in London and New York, and ready to step back and take profits after a strong equities rally on Thursday.
The Dow Jones industrial average .DJI was down 119.94 points, or 1.17 percent, at 10,139.05. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index .SPX was down 15.13 points, or 1.37 percent, at 1,087.93. The Nasdaq Composite Index .IXIC was down 32.14 points, or 1.41 percent, at 2,245.54.
The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq had each fallen more than 1 percent earlier in the day, though had pared losses sharply before the news on Spain sparked a new wave of selling.
Technology bellwether Apple Inc (AAPL.O) managed to buck the downtrend, after Asian and European customers mobbed stores as the iPad tablet computer debuted outside the United States. Apple shares rose 1.5 percentwholesale NFL jersey. Bank of America Merrill Lynch raised its price target on Apple by $25 to $325 and kept its "buy" rating.
But still pressuring global shares and the euro was concern of contagion from the Greece debt crisis. Despite the lack of major shocks from Spain, Portugal or Ireland, which all have heavy debt loads, investors were still loathe to add risky assets due to questions of how shakier sovereign credit would affect the economic recovery.
Equities measured by the MSCI All-Country World Index .MIWD00000PUS fell 0.12 percent after earlier hitting a one-week high. The index is down about 9 percent in May and on track for its worst monthly loss since February 2009.
In Europe, markets closed ahead of the downgrade on Spain.
The pan-European FTSEurofirst 300 .FTEU3 index fell 0.3 percentMLB jersey, with energy shares falling along with a drop in crude oil prices.
"It looked quite bullish earlier, but investors are taking risk off the table going into the weekend and also holidays in the U.S. and the UK on Monday," said Matthew Brown, sales trader at ETX Capital. "They are not keen to hold equities."
Tokyo's Nikkei average .N225 closed up 1.3 percent in its best one-day performance in two weeks as exporter shares climbed on a halt in the yen's advance.
The Thomson Reuters/University of Michigan consumer confidence index edged higher in April, while the Institute for Supply Management-Chicago's business barometer dropped in May from a five-year high in April, signaling inventory restocking that has driven U.S. growth in recent quarters may be slowing.
Tempered views of global economic strength sent yields on benchmark 10-year Bunds down by 0.01 percentage point to 2.67 percent, and yields on 10-year U.S. Treasuries off by 0.05 percentage points to 3.31 percent.
In energy and commodities, U.S. light sweet crude oil fell 1.1 percent to $73.73 per barrel, and spot gold fell $5.65, or 0.47 percent, to $1,205.40.

For the most part, the NFL has diverted away from the traditional smash-mouth offenses, and instead transitioned into a quarterback-driven league.
A quarterback is the leader of the entire team and is responsible for making crucial decisions for the offense. Without a franchise quarterback, it’s tough to be a competitive unit.
Taking a look at the top 10 passing offenses, eight of those teams were in the playoffs. Nonetheless, the defending Super Bowl Champion New Orleans Saints were not only fourth in the league in passing, but sixth in rushing as well. ed hardy clothing
Having a balanced offense is an integral key to success. In general, it keeps the opposition honest.
A potent ground game can truly compliment your aerial attack, as it draws extra defenders into the box, ultimately opening up opportunities down field. Moreover, when your opponent doesn’t know what to expect, it makes stopping you much tougher.
In addition, it takes immense pressure off your quarterback’s shoulders. Having to carry the entire group and throw the ball 40 times a game will effect a player, both physically and mentally.
Due to human nature, we all strive for that ’sidekick’ who we can rely on to help us along down the stretch. We often realize that doing everything by ourselves isn’t realistic nor efficient. The league’s leader in passer rating, Drew Brees, had one of the best rushing attacks to help him succeed.louboutin shoes
Finally, while this may surprise some, having an effective running game can even help your defense. A team’s rushing attack helps convert critical downs and move the chains. As a result, added time is burned off the clock. Ultimately, this forces the opposing defense to remain on the field, while your’s rests patiently on the sidelines.
A prime example of this is the New York Jets. Even though they had an inexperienced rookie QB in Mark Sanchez, they were able to make a deep playoff push, all the way to the AFC Championship Game. A primary reason for this was their top ranked rushing offense and No. 1 ranked defense. jordan shoes
Statistically speaking, the two go hand in hand, as five of the top nine rushing offenses were among the top ten defenses as well. NHL jerseys
Finally, in order to win the ultimate prize—the Lombardi Trophy—a powerful rushing game is typical. In fact, four of the past five Super Bowl winners have ranked in the top six of the league in terms of rushing yards per game.
As you can see, having an effective rushing attack, and more importantly a balanced offense, is still important.
For every Peyton Manning and Tom Brady out there, the league still has an Adrian Peterson and Chris Johnson. Without them, the game of football that we have come to love and cherish would never be the same.nfl jerseys

If Evgeni Nabokov is the greatest Sharks goaltender of all time, let Antti Niemi challenge for that title. hair straightener
With the departure of the most notable and recognizable face of the San Jose franchise, Sharks management find themselves faced with two options. They can bestow their trust upon Thomas Greiss, or they can go out into the market and acquire a new number one goalie.
Option #1: Promoting From Within
Thomas Greiss has spent most of his young career with San Jose’s AHL affiliate, the Worcester Sharks. With a GAA of 2.70 and save percentage of .904 in 141 AHL games, Greiss has earned very impressive numbers. He also has earned a small amount of experience in the NHL as well, recording 2.77 GAA in 19 games. Not too bad. ed hardy clothing
It would most definitely be a major risk to put Greiss between the Sharks’ pipes next season, but considering his stellar numbers in the AHL, it may not be completely absurd if San Jose management chooses to travel down this road.
The Sharks have signed Antero Niittymaki this offseason as a possible starter. He has proven himself as a reliable backup and somewhat of a starter with the Philadelphia Flyers and, most recently, the Tampa Bay Lightning. In 210 NHL games, Niittymaki has posted a 2.98 GAA.
As it stands right now, Niittymaki would likely be the starter and Greiss the backup. A questionable tag-team for a hockey club who is looking to improve on their conference final finish this past season.
Option #2: Acquisition jordan shoes
Without a doubt, the Sharks are looking to make some sort of a splash by acquiring a goalie either through trade or free agency. It would be wise to believe they have looked at numerous options and have yet to find an appropriate match considering their salary cap situation. This was the picture until the Chicago Blackhawks chose to walk away from a contract which would have given Antti Niemi $2.75 million in favor of Marty Turco, a more affordable option. According to CapGeek.com, the Sharks have just under $3.74 million in cap space for the upcoming season. If they were to sign Niemi, sure they would be right up against the cap, but as we’ve witnessed this past season, that’s what it takes to win a Stanley Cup.
If Antti Niemi were to become a member of the Sharks, Antero Niittymaki would be demoted to backup and Greiss would be sent to the minors.
So is Niemi the right move for San Jose? Of course!
The Sharks have qualified for the playoffs over the last six seasons. Four of those six success have come with them leading their division in points in the regular season. Last season, they made it to the Western Conference Finals. If you take out a veteran goaltender and you replace him with a goalie who won the Stanley Cup (defeating the Sharks on the way) on his first of many attempts, its a recipe for success! The Sharks have proven they are winners, they just need that extra push to win it all. NHL jerseys
Doug Wilson and company need to take a serious look at Antti Niemi. We all know Niemi can deliver, its just a matter of whether or not the Sharks are willing to welcome him as one of their own. It seems to be the best available choice. youth NFL jerseys
