POPS (stocks that jumped higher)
Intel (INTC) popped 7%. Bolstered by strong demand for chips, the world's largest computer-chip maker posted a 25% jump in second-quarter profits. – I don’t think Intel is much to look at going forward, says Jeff Macke.
Homebuilders (XHB) popped 15%. The Commerce Department reported that construction of multifamily units surged by 42.5% last month. – Housing starts were lost in the shuffle this week, says Joe Terranova.
General Motors (GM) popped 32%. Investors embraced GM's cost-cutting plan which includes slashing its work force and suspending its dividend. – I think it’s a dead cat bounce, says Karen Finerman. They don’t seem to have products that consumers want. I’d stay away.
Nokia (NOK) popped 6%. The world's largest cell phone maker reported better-than expected results showing the people still like to chat in a tough economy. – I’m interested to see if they have follow through, says Pete Najarian.
Mattel (MAT) popped 19%. The toy maker posted better than expected earnings and won a jury verdict concerning Bratz dolls. – I like Hasbro better, says Jeff Macke.
Macy's (M) popped 17%. Macy’s CEO Terry Lundgren reassured investors his company was dressed for success and a JPMorgan analyst removed his sell rating on the stock. – It’s a nice turnaround, says Karen Finerman.
Werner Enterprises (WERN) popped 26%. A JPMorgan analyst upgraded the company to 'Neutral' from 'Underweight,' citing the trucking company's improving fuel efficiency and capacity utilization.
Tempur-Pedic (TPX) popped 28%. The luxury mattress maker soared on strong sales showing that nothing beats a good night’s sleep.
IMAX Corp. (IMAX) popped 19%. The large format movie theatre operator said it had strong advanced ticket sales for “The Dark Knight.”' – It’s a little ahead of itself, says Jeff Macke.
DROPS (stocks that slid lower)
ConocoPhillips (COP) dropped 5%. Lower crude prices dragged down the third-largest U.S. oil company as well as its peers. – It’s was a liquidation trade, says Joe Terranova. I think it’s going higher, next.
Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) dropped 4%. The chipmaker reported a wider second-quarter loss than expected and said CEO Hector Ruiz would step down. – The chip makers just can’t get out of their own way, says Pete Najarian.
Evergreen Solar (ESLR) dropped 11%. The solar company initially popped after inking a $1.2 billion deal with IBC Solar, but then dropped after it guided lower.
