CVS Caremark (CVS) dropped 6%: Shares sold off after the drugstore giant posted a drop in fourth-quarter profit. CVS said the decline stemmed partly from the termination of large client contracts along with a decrease of coverage under Medicare Part D. Should the stock drop to $31.50, Guy Adami of Drakon Capital would consider buying shares.
Merck (MRK) dropped 2.5%: The drug company reported a fourth-quarter loss of $531 million, or 17 cents a share, which is far below the average analyst's estimate of 88 cents a share. Veracruz founder Steve Cortes likes this stocks 4.5 percent dividend yield. He's a buyer on this pullback.
Anadarko Petroleum (APC) dropped 3%: The independent oil & gas company's stock sold off after being downgraded to ‘equal-weight’ from ‘over-weight’ at Barclays, reports options trader JJ Kinahan. He would be careful with APC.
