The Dow Jones industrial average slipped five points, 0.03 percent, to 15,543, held back by losses in Microsoft and IBM.
The Nasdaq fell 23 points, 0.7 percent, to 3,587. The Nasdaq was the only major index to lose ground for the week.
Microsoft plunged 11 percent after writing off $900 million on its tablet computer.
Slightly more stocks rose than fell on the New York Stock Exchange.
