Stocks were falling on Wednesday, with the three major indices in the red at midday, dragged down by bank and retail stocks.

According to the Commerce Department, April retail sales were down 0.4%, missing expectations.

In retail earnings news, on Wednesday Macy'sreported that it lost $88 million, or 21 cents per share, for the quarter, and that sales fell 9.5% to $5.2 billion.

Liz Claiborne also recorded a loss in its first quarter, of $91.4 million, or 97 cents a share, and a 29% drop in sales.

As for banks, they were taking a hit on reports that Obama seeks to increased the regulation of executive compensation at financial companies.

With this in mind, we thought we'd take a look at some of the stocks in the news lately and see what Jim Cramer's had to say about them. Read the full article here..
