POPS (stocks that jumped higher)
CVS Caremark (CVS) popped 3%. A Goldman Sachs analyst said Wal-Mart's plan to expand its discount drug program won't impact CVS, the nation's largest pharmacy chain. – Goldman Sachs is wrong, exclaims Jeff Macke.
Walter Industries (WLT) popped 12%. Shares of the industrial name touched a 52-week high on expectations of higher coal prices. – I think it’s the right spot in the right time, says Pete Najarian
Freeport McMoRan (FCX) popped 5%. Power shortages in emerging markets are expected to knock metal mines offline, which in turn could send up prices for copper and gold. – I think it’s going to $200, says Guy Adami.
Old Soda-Pop. Coke is bringing back its vintage "diamond label" bottle from 1906 in limited quantities and printing a line of "vintage" t-shirts to go along with the campaign. No word on whether Coke is switching to glass to defray the cost of aluminum, up 15% in the last 3 months.
Intrepid Potash (IPI) popped 8%. The recently debuted fertilizer company jumped on Monday for no clear reason. – Take some profits, counsels Pete Najarian.
Melco PBL Entertainment (MPEL) popped 7%. Barron's spotlighted Stanley Ho's casino as the best buy in Macau. – I’m not sure, says Karen Finerman.
U.S. Steel (X) popped 6%. Another metals name heated up Monday as the price of steel surged at auction. – It’s always a pop, says Guy Adami.
LDK Solar (LDK) popped 5%. Oil's surge back to $120 per barrel sent alternative energy shares higher. – I wouldn’t go crazy, says Pete Najarian.
Beer coffin. Bill Bramanti, a 67-year old man from Chicago, has custom ordered his coffin to look like a giant can of Pabst Blue Ribbon.
DROPS (stocks that slid lower)
General Motors (GM) dropped 4%. Workers at a Kansas plant walked off the job over a labor dispute and disrupted production of the popular Chevy Malibu. – I’m not a GM fan, says Guy Adami.
Ambac (ABK) dropped 9%. Over the weekend Warren Buffett said the other bond insurers shouldn't still have AAA-ratings. – It’s not good, says Karen Finerman.
Limited Brands (LTD) dropped 5%. Retailers, like this maker of Victoria's Secret, closed lower on concerns that high gas prices will slow consumer spending. – Time to move along, says Jeff Macke.
Churchill Downs (CHDN) dropped 5%. Shares of the racetrack operator dropped after Friday downgrades. – Not loving this stock right now, says Jeff Macke.
Fannie Mae (FNM) dropped 4%. The mortgage lender is expected to report another loss when earnings come out Tuesday. – I’m curious, says Karen Finerman.
