NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks fell on Wall Street Wednesday as the price of crude oil rose back above $100 a barrel amid further escalation in the U.S. war with Iran.

The S&P 500 index fell 0.5%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 346 points, or 0.7%, as of 12:45 p.m. Eastern time. The Nasdaq composite fell 0.7%.

The losses were broad, with retailers among the companies leading the market lower. Amazon fell 2.1% and Starbucks fell 2%. Nearly every sector within the benchmark S&P 500 lost ground, but oil companies pushed higher. Exxon Mobil rose 1.8% and Chevron rose 1.4%.
