Toll Brothers (TOL) reported second-quarter earnings on Wednesday, announcing a loss of $93.7 million, or 59 cents a share. The homebuilder's revenue fell 51% to $398.3 million.
NetApp (NTAP) and EMC (EMC) are in a bidding war for Data Domain (DDUP). After EMC made an offer of $1.8 billion, NetApp raised its $1.5 billion offer to $1.9 billion. EMC's offer is all-cash, while NetApp's is a combination of stock and cash.
Also making Wednesday's headlines, a Collins Stewart analyst upgraded Apple (AAPL) to buy from neutral based on its competitive advantage in the smartphone market over Research In Motion (RIMM) and Microsoft (MSFT).
With this in mind, we thought we'd take a look at some of the stocks making the news lately and see what Jim Cramer's had to say about them.
