POPS (stocks that jumped higher)
Occidental Petroleum (OXY) popped 2%. The fourth-largest U.S. oil company reported strong 2nd quarter profits. – I like the oil services sector if oil goes higher, says Joe Terranova.
Radioshack (RSH) popped 14%. The third-largest U.S. electronics retailer said digital-TV converters drove sales. – This is a nice opportunity to trim your position in Radio Shack, says Jeff Macke.
Sanmina-SCI (SANM) popped 18%. Credit Suisse upgraded the company to 'Outperform' from 'Neutral' citing improving margins and valuations. – Stay away, counsels Tim Seymour.
AutoNation (AN) popped 11%. The largest publicly traded U.S. car dealer met expectations and announced new costs cutting measures. – Expectations are low, explains Jeff Macke.
Snooty The Manatee. Hundreds of visitors flocked to the South Florida Museum Parker Manatee Aquarium to celebrate Snooty the Manatee's 60th birthday, a milestone that makes Snooty the oldest manatee living in captivity.
DROPS (stocks that slid lower)
Southwest Airlines (LUV) dropped 6%. Despite posting a profit the airline headed south on oil’s renewed strength. – No matter how good a company they might be, they’re still in the airlines business, says Jeff Macke.
Pulte Homes (PHM) dropped 13%. The home builder reported its seventh consecutive quarterly loss leaving investors to wonder when will it end? – Housing sector equals bad, says Karen Finerman.
Mechel (MTL) dropped 38%. The Russian metals and mining company plunged after Vladimir Putin called for an investigation by antitrust authorities. – I think this company is worth a shot, says Tim Seymour.
Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG) dropped 20%. Results from the Mexican fast food operator were a little bland due to rising commodity costs. – They’re great operators but they can’t overcome commodity costs right now, says Karen Finerman.
Taco Bell. Rapper 50 Cent filed suit against the fast food chain for stealing his identity. The suit charges that Taco Bell ads featuring 50 Cent being encouraged to change his name to 79 Cent, 89 Cent or 99 Cent, were 'diluting the value of his good name.'
Xerox (XRX) dropped 5%. The company posted 2nd quarter earnings that fell 19% due partly to lower prices. – I wouldn’t touch it, says Joe Terranova.
Scholastic Corp. (SCHL) dropped 7%. The Harry Potter publisher missed analysts' estimates and said it would cut jobs. – Doesn’t sound so good, says Karen Finerman.
Starwood Hotels (HOT) dropped 11%. Not a lot of people on vacation these days and that dragged down guidance.
