 |
POPS (stocks that jumped higher)
General Motors (GM) popped 5%. Media reports suggested that government loans GM has received may be sufficient for survival. - And I might play tight end for the Giants, adds Guy Adami. (In other words, neither seems likely to the Negotiator.)
Family Dollar Stores (FDO) popped 14%. The store reported higher than expected first quarter profits after shoppers hit the discount stores.
Monsanto (MON) popped 18%. The firm announced first-quarter profit more than doubled and it raised its full year forecast.
AK Steel (AKS) popped 5%. Goldman upgraded the firm to “conviction buy” from “neutral” and predicted steel prices will bottom this month.
DROPS (stocks that slid lower)
Satyam Computer Services (SAY) dropped 90%. The firm’s Chairman resigned after admitting to inflating profits and falsifying the company’s balance sheet. - This could hurt capital going into India, speculates Tim Seymour.
Freeport-McMoRan (FCX) dropped 9%. Mitsubishi Materials, a copper-producer in which FCX holds a 25% stake, considered cutting production as global demand slowed. - The stock has made a huge run, explains Pete Najarian. It's just profit taking.
JPMorgan Chase (JPM) dropped 6%. Sandler O’Neill analyst Jeff Harte downgraded the stock and forecast a loss for its fourth-quarter. - I don't think anything has really changed with the fundamentals, counters Zach Karabell.
