POPS (stocks that jumped higher)
Huntington Bancshares (HBAN) popped 5%. Bank of America raised their rating on this bank to ‘buy’ from ‘neutral’. - That's good news, says Tim Seymour.
Visa (V) popped 2%. Perhaps investors felt the stock had been oversold after the Fed’s announcement last week to cap some fees. - I'd stay away, counsels Carter Worth.
Las Vegas Sands (LVS) popped 5%. According to published reports, the company got approval to move forward with a project in Macau. - I like this stock as well as Wynn, says Joe Terranova.
Chesapeake Energy (CHK) popped 8%. Investors followed Carl Icahn into this company on hopes he will maximize shareholder value. - I'd rather own this stock than play nat gas itself, says Mike Khouw.
DROPS (stocks that slid lower)
American Eagle (AEO) dropped 4%. Susquehanna downgraded the company to ‘neutral’ from ‘positive’ citing a sluggish December sales picture. - I wouldn't short it, but I also think there are much better places to play, says Guy Adami.
Akamai Technologies (AKAM) dropped 3%. The company’s lost an appeal in its suit against LimeLight Networks for patent infringement. - I see upside in this stock to $53, says Pete Najarian.
