The Dow Jones rallied 62 points in morning trading but quickly reversed course after news of the new Clinton email probe. The Dow finished the day down seven points.
The markets had pushed higher after the U.S. Commerce Department announced that third-quarter GDP increased by 2.9%, a figure that topped economists' expectations. It was also the strongest quarterly figure in two years.
Dow Jones: 18,162.22; -7.46; -0.04% , S&P 500: 2,126.49; -6.55; -0.31% ,Nasdaq: 5,190.10; -25.87; -0.50%
Asian markets mostly fell in opening trade, likely due to a triple-whammy of concerns over the upcoming U.S. presidential election, weak Japanese data and lower oil prices.
MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan was off 0.2 percent in early trading on Monday. It is set to end the month down 2 percent.
