| 12:41 EDT |  | ATVI, CZR, RVBD, LNKD, NUAN, MCD | On The Fly: Midday Wrap
Stocks on Wall Street were higher at midday after a report showed the trade deficit shrank in December, which may portend an upward revision to come for the initial reading on Q4 gross domestic product. The S&P's move higher stalled above the 1,510 level, while the Dow once again could not hold above 14K... ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S., the Commerce Department reported that the trade deficit shrank in December to its narrowest in nearly three years, falling to $38.5B, compared to expectations for a deficit of $46B. A separate report from the Commerce Department showed wholesale inventories fell 0.1% in December, versus forecasts for an increase of 0.4%. In China, the trade surplus narrowed slightly to $29.2B in January from a month earlier, but exports and imports both showed robust growth. Exports climbed 25%, while imports jumped 28.8%, both of which were ahead of expectations. Also, China's CPI was in line with forecasts at 2.0%. In Europe, German exports hit a record yearly high... COMPANY NEWS: In spite of reporting that its global same-store sales fell 1.9% in January, shares of McDonald's (MCD) rose about 0.7% near midday. The company's comparable sales were down during the month in the Asia-Pacific region and in Europe, but were up nearly 1% in the U.S... MAJOR MOVERS: Among the notable gainers was Caesar's Entertainment (CZR), which rose another 25% after being up nearly 19% in yesterday's session. Also higher were shares of LinkedIn (LNKD), up 21%, and Activision Blizzard (ATVI), up 12% after earnings reports that prompted analyst upgrades. On the flip side, shares of Nuance (NUAN) slid 19% and Riverbed (RVBD) declined 18% after their earnings reports were catalysts for multiple Street downgrades... INDICES: Near midday, the Dow was up 49.77, or 0.36%, to 13,993.82; the Nasdaq was up 26.55, or 0.84%, to 3,191.68; and the S&P 500 was up 7.81, or 0.52%, to 1,517.20. |
