(Reuters) - U.S. stocks opened lower on Thursday, halting a four-day record run for the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq indexes, as optimism over U.S.-Canada trade talks was overshadowed by concerns over Washington's tariff dispute with China.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 25.56 points, or 0.10 percent, at the open to 26,099.01. The S&P 500 opened lower by 5.10 points, or 0.18 percent, at 2,908.94. The Nasdaq Composite dropped 15.49 points, or 0.19 percent, to 8,094.20 at the opening bell.
