Stocks on Wall Street were lower following some disappointing economic data and a hint from a regional Fed president that the central bank may taper its easing program in the coming months. The averages traded in a narrow range for much of the session before moving lower in the final hour of trading. Comments by San Francisco Fed president John Williams late in the afternoon, suggesting that the central bank may begin slowing its bond buying pace by the summer, may have spurred the late session selling. ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S., initial jobless claims rose 32K to 360K last week, compared to expectations for them to remain relatively stable at 330K. The consumer price index dropped a larger than forecast 0.4% in April, though the "core" CPI rate rose 0.1%, as expected. Housing starts were down 16.5% in April from the prior month, versus an expected decrease of 6.4%, though building permits jumped 14.3% from the prior month, beating an expected increase of 3.8%. The Philadelphia Fed General Business Conditions Index for May came in at -5.2, versus expectations for a +2.2 reading. COMPANY NEWS: Earnings reports from two Dow members, Wal-Mart (WMT) and Cisco (CSCO), sent their shares in opposite directions. Cisco shares added $2.66, or 12.54%, to $23.87 to lead the blue chip index after the company's results beat expectations on the top and bottom lines. Wal-Mart fell $1.36, or 1.7%, to $78.50 after its first quarter earnings sand second quarter outlook missed the consensus forecast... Tesla Motors (TSLA) last night announced a stock and debt offering of more than $800M, with CEO Elon Musk announcing his intent to buy $100M of the offering, and shares of the electric car maker added $7.36, or 8.67%, to $92.20. MAJOR MOVERS: Among notable gainers was Aegerion (AEGR), up $14.73, or 31.37%, to $61.70 after the company said its Juxtapid treatment may have a $1B global market opportunity and at least two analyst firms raised their price targets on its shares. Also higher was Constellation Brands (STZ), up $1.52, or 3.03%, to $51.76 after the stock was upgraded at Stifel and ISI Group. Among noteworthy losers following analyst downgrades were AMD (AMD), which fell 55c, or 12.56%, to $3.83 after Goldman downgraded the stock to Sell, and CSC (CSC), which slid $2.12, or 4.74%, to $42.59 after being cut to Hold at Deutsche Bank. Also lower following its quarterly report was NetQin Mobile (NQ), down 72c, or 7.5%, to $8.88. INDICES: The Dow was down 42.47, or 0.28%, to 15,233.22; the Nasdaq was down 6.38, or 0.18%, to 3,465.24; and the S&P 500 was down 8.31, or 0.50%, to 1,650.47. | | | | 14:01 EDT | | CSCO | Options Update; May 16, 2013

The S&P 500 was virtually unchanged at midday following a deluge of domestic economic data this morning. The S&P began the session in negative territory, but only moderately lower, after investors received a host of data prior to the open, including reports on jobless claims, consumer prices, and housing starts. ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S., initial jobless claims rose 32K to 360K last week, compared to expectations for them to remain relatively stable at 330K. The consumer price index dropped a larger than forecast 0.4% in April, though the "core" CPI rate rose 0.1%, as expected. Housing starts were down 16.5% in April from the prior month, versus an expected decrease of 6.4%, though building permits jumped 14.3% from the prior month, beating an expected increase of 3.8%. The Philadelphia Fed General Business Conditions Index for May came in at -5.2, versus expectations for a +2.2 reading. COMPANY NEWS: Earnings reports from two Dow members, Wal-Mart (WMT) and Cisco (CSCO), sent their shares in opposite directions. Cisco shares advanced 12% to lead the blue chip index after the company's results beat expectations on the top and bottom lines and prompted price target increases at several analyst firms. Wal-Mart, in contrast, lagged all Dow names, sliding 2% after its earnings for the just ended quarter and its view of the current quarter missed the consensus forecast... After the closing bell, Tesla Motors (TSLA) said it intends to raise about $830M by offering 2.7M common shares and $450M in convertible senior notes. CEO Elon Musk will buy $100M worth of the stock and debt, the company said, and its recently high-flying shares rose another 6%. MAJOR MOVERS: Among the notable gainers rising following Cisco's better than expected results and commentary were Ciena (CIEN), which rose 8%, and Cavium (CAVM), which advanced 4%. Also higher were shares of NetApp (NTAP), which gained over 6% after Bloomberg said activist investor Elliott Management has taken a stake in the company and is pushing its board to explore ways to boost shareholder value. Among the noteworthy losers were Oncothyreon (ONTY), which fell 20%, and Biomarin (BMRN), down 5%, after both pharmaceutical companies, among a number of others, published data to be presented at ASCO, an annual meeting of oncologists. Also lower was AMD (AMD), which declined 14% following a downgrade to Sell at Goldman Sachs. INDICES: Near noon, the Dow was up 12.47, or 0.08%, to 15,288.16; the Nasdaq was up 8.74, or 0.25%, to 3,480.36; and the S&P 500 was nearly flat at 1,658.80. | | | 10:44 EDT |  | CSCO | Cisco results give boost to semiconductor names

Cisco (CSCO) is set to report Q3 earnings after the market closes on Wednesday, May 15, with a conference call scheduled for 4:30 pm ET. Cisco manufactures and sells IP-based networking products and services. EXPECTATIONS: Analysts are looking for EPS of 49c on revenue of $12.18B, according to First Call. The consensus range for EPS is 47c-51c on revenue of $12.05B-$12.29B. On its Q2 earnings conference call, the company said it sees Q3 adjusted EPS 48c-50c on revenue growth of 4%-6% year-over-year. The company also said it sees Q3 adjusted gross margin approximately 61%-62%, and non-GAAP operating margin of 26.5%-27.5%. LAST QUARTER: Cisco reported Q2 EPS of 51c against estimates for 48c on revenue of $12.1B against estimates for $12.06B. In mid-March, Cisco was found not to have infringed patents held by VirnetX (VHC), and on March 22, Bloomberg reported that Cisco was ordered to pay $70M in fraud damages to XpertUniverse. On March 28, the company announced a 3c increase in its dividend to 17c per share. On April 3, Cisco announced its intent to acquire Ubiquisy, a provider of 3G and LTE small-cell technologies, for $310M, and the transaction is expected to close in Q4. STREET RESEARCH: Street research has been mixed on Cisco, with shares of the company losing more than 3% on March 21 following a downgrade to Underperform from Market Perform at FBR Capital. With its March 21 downgrade, FBR cut its price target on shares of Cisco to $17 from $22, saying the company would be challenged to offset declining routing and switching demand. Earlier this week, however, FBR reversed its March call, upgrading Cisco to Market Perform from Underperform and bumping its price target to $19. Earlier this week, Piper Jaffray said it expects Cisco to report Q3 EPS in-line with estimates, though the firm lowered its revenue estimates for the company. In its note, Piper said macro headwinds will offset favorable data center and switching demand, leaving Cisco with a mixed Q3 report, though the firm reiterated its Overweight rating and $25 price target on shares. Coverage on Cisco shares was also initiated by at least two firms during the quarter, with Cowen initiating coverage with an Outperform rating earlier this month and Northland Securities initiating coverage on Cisco with an Outperform rating and a $25.50 price target the day after Cisco's Q2 report. PRICE ACTION: Shares of Cisco have traded in a narrow range between $20-$22 per share since its Q2 report, gaining a scant 0.4%. Shares of Cisco, which are up about 8% year-to-date, are near flat in afternoon trading ahead of its Q3 report. | | | 08:33 EDT | | CSCO | Cisco May volatility elevated into Q3 and outlook

Cisco May call option implied volatility is at 59, June is at 28, July is at 25; compared to its 26-week average of 26 according to Track Data, suggesting larger near term price movement into the expected release of Q3 results after the market close on May 15. | | | 07:02 EDT | | CSCO | Cisco Q3 results likely to be mixed, says Piper Jaffray
Piper Jaffray expects Cisco to report in-line Q3 earnings and margins on May 15, but lowered its revenue estimate for the quarter as it believes demand in April was challenging. However, the firm sees limited share downside from current levels and reiterates an Overweight rating on the stock with a $25 price target. | | | 06:05 EDT | | CSCO | On the Fly: Periodicals Wrap-Up
