(Close): US shares suffered their first weekly loss in a month as uncertainty persisted over the possibility of the Federal Reserve moving closer to ending its economic stimulus action.

The Dow Jones edged up 8 points on Friday to close at 15,303 but was lower overall for the week.

The S&P 500 slipped 1 point on Friday to 1,649.6, in thin trading ahead of the Memorial Day holiday.

Procter & Gamble was the best performer on the Dow, rising 4%.

But Hewlett-Packard, which had been one of Thursday's big winners, fell 2.6%.

The previous day, HP shares had gone up 17% after the company said late on Wednesday it would do better than expected this year.
