By Chuck Mikolajczak NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. stocks dipped on Thursday, with the Nasdaq underperforming other major indexes, as investors once again rotated into defensive names and sold momentum-driven stocks. Biotech and large technology stocks, some of the biggest gainers in 2013, slumped on Thursday. Both the Nasdaq biotechnology index and the NYSEArca biotech index lost more than 2 percent. Google Inc , which was down 2.5 percent at $553, and Biogen Idec Inc , down 3.7 percent at $289.50, were among the biggest drags on the S&P 500.
