Shares of Synaptics (SYNA), which develops touch products for smartphones, are declining after research firm Maxim Group wrote that the company would be hurt by Samsung's (SSNLF) decision to produce many fewer Galaxy S4 devices. WHAT'S NEW: Samsung has started reducing its shipments of Galaxy S 4 smartphones in response to weak sales of the device, Maxim Group wrote in a note to investors. The Korean company is likely to reduce production of the device by 20%-25%, the firm added. Synaptics has the most exposure to the Galaxy S4 of all the companies that Maxim covers, the analyst wrote. TODAY'S PRICE ACTION: In early afternoon trading, Synaptics fell $1, or 2.6%, to $37.75. OTHERS TO WATCH: Other companies with exposure to Samsung devices include Broadcom (BRCM), Maxim Integrated (MXIM), Audience (ADNC), Peregrine (PSMI), RF Micro Devices (RFMD), Skyworks (SWKS), ARM Holdings (ARMH), Qualcomm (QCOM), and TriQuint (TQNT). | | | 08:06 EDT | | SWKS | Skyworks to partner with SMC on wireless solutions for connected home

Stocks on Wall Street were higher at midday after S&P raised its outlook on the U.S. economy, Chinese data disappointed and Japanese stocks rallied. Stocks began the session higher but the averages turned mixed within minutes and passed back and forth across the flatline in the early minutes of the trading day. The averages made a definitive move higher about an hour into trading and have remained in positive territory since. ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S., ratings agency Standard & Poor's upgraded its outlook for the U.S. economy to stable from negative, pointing to the strengthening economy and the dollar's status as the world's "key reserve currency" as contributors to its decision. In Asia, Chinese exports posted their lowest growth in almost a year in May, while inflation, growth in bank lending and investment came in below expectations. Also, factory output and retail sales grew at a pace that was similar to previous months. However, in Japan, the Nikkei index rallied nearly 5% after the nation's gross domestic product expanded by an annualized 4.1% in the first quarter, which was stronger than the prior 3.5% growth estimate. COMPANY NEWS: Apple (AAPL) advanced over 1% ahead of the start of its Worldwide Developers Conference, which kicks off with a keynote address from CEO Tim Cook scheduled for 1 pm ET. An updated mobile iOS, a new version of its desktop operating system and new MacBooks have all been rumored to debut, but the most discussed potential announcement is Apple’s "iRadio" Pandora (P) competitor. Pandora shares were down almost 3% as the event approached... Facebook (FB) shares rallied 5% after research analysts at Stifel and JPMorgan both issued positive notes to investors about the social network company. MAJOR MOVERS: Among the notable gainers was Canadian Solar (CSIQ), which rose 7% after announcing a $300M deal for solar power plant construction. Among the noteworthy losers were Dynavax (DVAX), which dropped 34% after reporting feedback from an FDA meeting regarding its investigational adult hepatitis B vaccine, and Titan International (TWI), which fell over 8% following downgrades by at least three firms. INDICES: Near noon, the Dow was up 25.89, or 0.17%, to 15,274.01; the Nasdaq was up 14.18, or 0.41%, to 3,483.40; and the S&P 500 was up 3.76, or 0.23%, to 1,647.14. | | |
