Walmart \u2014 the big box retailer saw shares jump nearly 5% to hit a record after the retail giant topped fiscal third-quarter earnings and revenue expectations. The retailer also hiked its outlook again as it saw growth in e-commerce and improvements in sales outside of the grocery aisles. Super Micro Computer \u2014 The server maker surged 29.2% after announcing BDO as its new auditor to replace Ernst &amp; Young, which stepped down last month. Super Micro also provided a plan to the Nasdaq on how it will comply with the exchange&#8217;s rules. Lowe&#8217;s \u2014 The home improvement retailer dropped more than 3% after saying it expects sales to decline in 2024 . That guidance overshadowed a better-than-expected third-quarter report. Kraft Heinz &#8212; The packaged food company dipped about 1% after a Piper Sandler downgrade to neutral from overweight. The investment firm said Kraft Heinz is struggling to turn around a retail sales decline, including in its Lunchables brand, and that the potential role of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in the upcoming Trump administration could be a risk. Insmed \u2014 Shares rallied more than 8% after the drugmaker terminated a $500 million equity sales agreement with health care investment bank Leerink Partners. Viking Holdings \u2014 Shares declined 1% even after the travel company exceeded Wall Street&#8217;s third-quarter estimates. Viking posted adjusted earnings of 89 cents per share on revenue of $1.68 billion. Analysts polled by FactSet forecasted earnings of 84 cents per share, excluding items, on revenue of $1.67 billion. The company also reported strong advance bookings for the 2025 season. Symbotic \u2014 The automation technology company soared 26.2% after topping revenue estimates in the fiscal fourth quarter. Revenue came in at $576.8 million in the fourth quarter, beating the $470.2 million estimated by analysts, per FactSet. Symbotic also offered strong current-quarter top-line guidance. H &amp; R Block , Intuit \u2014 The tax filing companies both fell after The Washington Post reported that President-elect Donald Trump&#8217;s &#8220;Department of Government Efficiency&#8221; commission is looking toward a new mobile app for filing taxes. Intuit shares pulled back 5.4%, while H &amp; R Block declined 7.4%. \u2014 CNBC&#8217;s Jesse Pound, Yun Li, Sarah Min, Alex Harring, Sean Conlon and Pia Singh contributed reporting<\/span><\/span><\/span><span class=\"HighlightShare-hidden\" style=\"top:0;left:0\"><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2024\/11\/19\/stocks-making-the-biggest-moves-midday-wmt-low-intu-khc-and-more.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Check out the companies making headlines in midday trading.
