12:13 EDTINTC, AAPL, ADNC, P, SWHC, GMCROn The Fly: Midday Wrap
Stocks on Wall Street were mixed at midday in spite of a disappointing monthly jobs report and a guidance cut from tech bellwether Intel (INTC). Stock began the session close to the flat line and remained there throughout the morning. The market action was muted despite less jobs being created in August than expected. The fact the market has held its value today may be related to expectations that the worse than expected jobs data will more certainly prompt Fed action. The week, which was viewed as a critical one given the potential importance of the ECB meeting and jobs data, is set to end with markets higher if the averages hold their midday levels... ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S. the monthly jobs report showed the economy added 96,000 jobs in August, versus expectations of an increase of 130,000. The unemployment rate fell to 8.1% from 8.3% last month, though that was largely due to the labor force shrinking by 367,000 as people stop searching for work... COMPANY NEWS: Shares of Intel fell 84c, or 3.35%, to $24.25 near noon after the company lowered its Q3 revenue outlook and withdrew all other quarterly and full year expectations, citing weaker than expected demand in what it called "a challenging macroeconomic environment"... MAJOR MOVERS: Among the notable gainers were Smith & Wesson (SWHC), up 14% following the company's better than expected Q1 results and increased guidance, and Green Mountain Coffee Roasters (GMCR), up over 10% after Lazard initiated coverage on the stock with a Buy rating and $39 price target. Among the noteworthy losers were two names that confirmed the overwhelming power of Apple (AAPL) on its suppliers and potential competitors: Audience (ADNC) plunged 68% after the company said it would not be included in the iPhone 5 and Pandora (P) slid nearly 19% after the Wall Street Journal reported Apple may offer a competing music service... INDICES: Near noon, the Dow was down 7.62, or 0.06%, to 13,284.38; the Nasdaq was down 1.59, or 0.05%, to 3,134.22; and the S&P 500 was up 3.62, or 0.25%, to 1,435.74.
