12:57 EDTEQIXOn The Fly: Midday Wrap
The Wall Street averages were all up about 1% near midday after the monthly jobs report beat forecasts. ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S., the Labor Department reported employers added 175K jobs in May, beating expectations for 163K added jobs. The unemployment rate rose slightly to 7.6% in May from 7.5% in April, with the uptick attributed to more people entering the workforce. COMPANY NEWS: TiVo (TIVO) confirmed it had settled a patent lawsuit with Google's (GOOG) Motorola unit, Cisco (CSCO) and Time Warner Cable (TWC), as reported by media outlets yesterday. The company also doubled its stock buyback authorization, but TiVo shares, which had been higher yesterday on the initial reports, fell over 17% as the amount of money the company received in the deal fell short of analyst expectations. MAJOR MOVERS: Among the notable gainers were JinkoSolar (JKS) and Thor Industries (THO), which both gained over 10% following their earnings reports. Also higher were shares of Yum! Brands (YUM), which rose nearly 3% after UBS upgraded the stock to Buy. Among the losers were a number of companies that had hoped to convert to real estate investment trusts after the IRS formed a group to study issues relating to REIT conversions. Notably, Iron Mountain (IRM) fell almost 16%, Copart (CPRT) dropped over 6%, and Equinix (EQIX) slid over 5%. INDICES: Near 1 pm ET, the Dow was up 168.95, or 1.12%, to 15,209.57; the Nasdaq was up 35.12, or 1.03%, to 3,459.17; and the S&P 500 was up 15.41, or 0.95%, to 1,637.97.

06:36 EDTEQIXEquinix says IRS formed working group for REIT review
Equinix said that as previously disclosed, as part of its planned conversion to a real estate investment trust, it is seeking a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service. The IRS has recently informed Equinix that it has convened an internal working group to study what constitutes real estate for purposes of the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, and that, pending the completion of the study, the IRS is unlikely to issue PLRs on what constitutes real estate for REIT purposes. Equinix added that it cannot predict when the IRS working group will complete its study or what the outcome of the study will be. However, Equinix said it continues to believe, based on both existing legal precedent and the fact that other data center companies currently operate as REITs, that its data center assets constitute real estate for REIT purposes. Equinix said it continues to move forward on its plan to convert to a REIT. At this time, Equinix does not expect the potential delay in receiving a PLR as a result of the new IRS working group will delay Equinix’s plan to elect REIT status for the taxable year beginning January 1, 2015.
