NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- U.S. financial stock indexes moved lower late Tuesday morning as the euro's fresh high against the dollar kept currency-related anxiety at the forefront.
Dollar bearishness continued as U.S. trading progressed Tuesday, pushing the euro-dollar to $1.31 for the first time since the common currency's 1999 launch.
The Amex Securities Broker/Dealer Index ($XBD: news, chart, profile) shed 0.1 percent, while the Philadelphia Bank Sector Index ($BKX: news, chart, profile) slipped 0.3 percent.
