May 11 (Reuters) - Wall Street's main indexes opened lower on Monday, after last week's record-setting rally, as renewed worries over stalled U.S.-Iran talks lifted oil prices and tempered risk appetite.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 60.1 points, or 0.12%, at the open to 49,549.07. The S&P 500 fell 13.6 points, or 0.18%, at the open to 7,385.31, while the Nasdaq Composite dropped 111.4 points, or 0.42%, to 26,135.633 at the opening bell.
