The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 1.1%, or 335 points. The S&P 500was down 0.5%, while the Nasdaq Composite rose 0.04%.
Sentiment on stocks made a soft start to the week on reports that Chinese chipmaker Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC) and national offshore oil and gas producer China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) could be ban from accessing U.S. investors.
On top of rising U.S.-China tensions, profit-taking on value stocks on concerns about a surge in infections over the coming weeks following the Thanksgiving holiday also weighed on sentiment.

Industrials were also in the red as airlines fell sharply following a weaker outlook from JetBlue.
