nicole petallides on the floor of the nyse, sandra smith in the pits of the cme.ith nicole. >> thanks, ashley. we're taking a look at a market as you noted, dow 15,000 was in the sights of many bulls out there on wall street but they're not getting that right now, not today, doesn't seem. we're down, anything is possible though. we're down 27 points here on wall street. as you noted weak economic reports on retail sales and consumer sentiment really weighing in on this market. it is a friday ahead of a weekend. you don't see people jumping in and buying up the markets. however that being said. there is nice one-week chart. looks like we could snap four days of gains from the dow and s&p as we're pulling back. we're so close to the unchanged line. i'm making no predictions, vix, fear index is slightly to the up skooid at 1253. we should note names hitting new highs, or all-time highs. mcdonald's, pfizer, proctor & gamble. pfizer had good news on a breast cancer drug they were working on. wal-mart, home depot, verizon,. home depot go a buy rating. easy to find names

nicole petallides on the floor of the nyse. sandra smith is in the pits of the cme.ith nicole down at the new york stock exchange. nicole. >> ashley and tracy we're seeing back and forth action and now all three main sqor averages with up arrows with the s&p 500 fraction alley away from the all-time intraday high. that will be somebody to watch going into the close. the dow is up 17 points and the nasdaq has broken out and moved to levels that we haven't seen since the year 2000. there is nice one-month chart for the dow jones industrials. all three of major averages remain to the upslide for the month of april. you can see you do have up arrows for all of them there. the s&p and nasdaq th acom chart for one month. on wall street american express express and ibm are uping their dividends. dividend stocks are hot. apple whichcontinues to gain, six out of seven trading days up arrows there. best buy is really a winner today. up over 8% at any given point some there are plenty of winners to speak of but the pressure remains on a name like pfizer which has been weighing

let's head to the floor of the nyse. doreen, big selloff in stocks and gold.e the money is heading. >> i think it's heading back into cash for the moment. i think people have taken a lot of profits off the table. when we spoke earlier, market seemed to be holding up well relative to the news but as you can see, we're deteriorating. something to look at, volume has gotten lighter so it seems we're not getting any support here on the buy side. gold, you know, i think gold is off the close but still around the lows of the day. dennis: i thought the biggest clue is headed for a tumble is that i was about to buy the gdletf. >> i'm not a gold trader and i'm long gold so i'm not having the greatest day but i don't know. i think that it depends on why you buy it. if you're a gold trader, you have to look at technical levels, if you're buying it to leave to your children, then you pick your price. dennis: gotcha. thank you for being with us. tom cruise is top gun again at the box office. overseas, anyway. new sci-fi thriller "oblivion" raked in over $60 million. jackie

nicole petallides at nyse. food and drink companies out with earnings today. >> we'll take the opportunity to take a look at some of these names really household names for that matter. panera bread which actually hit an all-time high recently, now is pulling back. you could see it is down 2.25%. their earnings for the quarter did miss analyst estimates. as a result you could see us down about 4 bucks. let's take a look here at yum! brands. yum brand the parent of kfc, taco bell, pizza hut. the key story is over in china. concerns about bird flu was an issue. chicken and the like. there were worries it would hit revenue. they did better than eepected up 7.6%. dr. pepper, snapple, parent of sunkist, 7-up, apple juice. coming out with good quarter. shares are hitting all-time high. they had productivity improvement. 10 calorie drinks helped them along and as you see that is winner. back to you. ashley: nicole, thank you very much. we'll be back with you in 15 minutes. tracy: everyone is still digesting apple's ear

nicole petallides on the floor of nyse.e go there in every 15 minutes, nicole. >> one to take a look at is first solar. shares are jumping 40%. you can see it is up over 32%. it has hit volatility pauses throughout the day here as they have given guidance going forward, better than expected. better than expected full-year revenue and also earnings that we're seeing that would be better than expected. so with that, one of the things we should note with the big jump we're seeing that there's big short squeeze. on dow jones they talked about, called this the mother of all short squeezes. 60 million float. 18 million is actually short. what is happening a lot of people who did not think first solar would give guidance that was good news are running to quickly cover. first solar benefited from stronger than expected demand over the projects unexpectedly. over the last year we're up over 30% on the stock. back to you. ashley: very interesting. thank you very much, nicole. we'll be back with you of course in about 15 minutes. trac

time now for cramer's mad dash ahead of the market open on a tuesday on the nyse. talk about the airline industry and your own experience. you know i like the airline industry and this is the first time i recommended on air because it's become a slap happy oligopoly. price competition almost nil in some of these roots. at the same time, not to be too anecdotal and yesterday i'm flying back from orlando and the plane is in the gate. the doors are shut. we know we're leaving 3:30 and headed to kennedy and then a pilot says because of the sequester -- >> he said that? >> and then he came back and said listen, the sequester. the faa told us they don't have enough people at kennedy so oui not taking off. i said you have to be kidding me? i'm sorry. wield have loved to announce it to people so you could go mack your calls, but the faa has ordered a full stop and we are not allowed to do anything and we have no idea until two minutes ago. >> what about the sequester's impact in a real way on ticket sales particularly for government employees and the like and travel will?

nyse, new lows. the highest level that we have seen since november. it's not titanic.ows this week. interesting comments this morning. margins, margin debt approaching all time highs at the new york stock exchange. that's important because just like with cold deleveraging. stock deleveraging can occur with high margin debt. so pay attention to when things start moving down like this. that can be a contributing factor in what's moving here. take a look at the sectors here. it's very rare here. when you get better than 1% declines in all the major sectors health care is down 1%. sharon has been talking about this, we have commodities at or near 52 week lows. copper, aluminum, nickel, all sitting essentially near two-week lows. every stock is a whodty name. these are names that you know all about. all of those are at 52-week lows. there was an interesting point about individual people coming and buying gold coins. it's an interesting idea but there is just not enough out there. the women of india, the biggest buyers in the world. there's already reports that nair flooding
