NEW YORK (CNNMoney)
U.S. stock futures were bouncing around between small gains and losses ahead of the open Friday morning.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell more than 130 points, or nearly 1%, on Thursday. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq also declined by about 1% on the first trading day of 2014.
Some market experts say Thursday's fall was triggered by profit taking as investors looked to lock in gains after the record-setting run in 2013.
"Market participants booked profits even in the face of decent economic data out of the U.S.," wrote ETX Capital market strategist Ishaq Siddiqi in a note.

There is little in the way of U.S. economic and corporate reports scheduled for release Friday morning. Investors will be awaiting the Commerce Department's latest monthly U.S. auto sale numbers at 2:00 p.m. ET.
European markets were edging higher in morning trading. France's CAC 40 was up by roughly 0.5%.
Major Asian markets ended in the red, with Hong Kong's Hang Seng dropping by 2.2%.
Markets in Shanghai and Tokyo were closed for an extended new year break.
