VAR
Varian Med Sys In - $47.39

Larger than expected buying in the Varian Medical (VAR) May 35-calls suggests to Najarian that this stock could soon move higher.

-
KG
King Pharmaceutic - $12.08
- +0.17%
- $12.01
Also a spike in the volume of King Pharma (KG) May 10-calls also leads Najarian believe this stock could soon move higher.

HOG
Harley Davidson - $28.78
- +0.42%
- $28.68
If you’re looking for a trade you might want to think about shorting Harley-Davidson (HOG). I think you could play the puts. - Guy Adami

-
PCU
Southern Copper C - $34.82
- -0.66%
- $35.09
The demand in copper just isn’t there, says Tim Seymour. I’d be careful of Southern Copper (PCU) and Freeport McMorRan (FCX), although I’m not bearish on all metals, by any means. I think it's okay to play this space, counters Pete Najarian provided you do it by getting long either stock mentioned above and also buying puts for downside protection.

FCX
Freeport Mcmoran - $85.59
- +0.30%
