Stocks closed higher ahead of Thanksgiving, as the Dow soared 150.91 points to finish at 11,187.26 and the S&P 500 gained 17.62 points to end at 2,543.12.
On a positive tape Wednesday, here's the market movers that caught the traders' attention:
POPS (stocks that moved higher)
Boeing (BA) popped 3%: The world’s largest aerospace company may be able to deliver the 787 Dreamliner faster than expected, according to a note published by Cowen Wednesday.
Cree (CREE) popped 10%: The energy-efficient lighting products producer was added to Morgan Keegan’s ‘Focus List’ Wednesday. Guy Adami of Drakon Capital likes CREE at current levels.
Oracle (ORCL) popped 2%: The software giant rallied after news broke that SAP must pay Oracle $1.3 billion for copyright infringement. Virtus Investment Partners' Joe Terranova loves the Oracle story and owns shares. He thinks you should do the same.
Cummins (CMI) popped 4%: The truck manufacturer's stock rallied and hit a new 52-week high in Wednesday’s trading session. Karen Finerman, president of Metropolitan Capital Advisors, would wait to buy CMI on a pullback.
DROPS (stocks that moved lower)
CBOE Holdings (CBOE) dropped 3%: The owner of the world’s largest equity derivatives market said it purchased shares from former seatholders of the Chicago Board Options Exchange in a tender offer. Mike Khouw of Cantor Fitzgerald said it's fully valued and would stay away for now.
