Expedia (EXPE) popped 6%. This is the second "pop" in a row for the online travel site on continued speculation of privatization. The stock continues to trade higher despite the fact that IAC's CEO Barry Diller has denied the speculation.
Kosan Biosciences (KOSN) popped 229%. This is quite possibly the largest single-day pop we've ever had on this show. Bristol Myers agreed to pay $190 million to gain control of Kosan's experimental cancer treatments.
Amylin (AMLN) popped 5%. The biotech advanced ahead of ASCO this weekend.
Coldwater Creek (CWTR) popped 7%. Although it swung to a loss for the quarter it was smaller than expected and the retailer said it might post a profit for full-year 2008.

DROPS (stocks that slid lower)
Marriott (MAR) dropped 2%. Morgan Stanley cut the hotel chain to "Equal weight" from "Over weight." – Business travel is getting squeezed, explains Pete Najarian.
Gold ETF (GLD) dropped 3%. As the dollar strengthened the gold trade continued to deteriorate.
