TradingMarkets 7 Stocks You Need to Know for Today

Here are 7 stocks for traders for today from TradingMarkets.com:

  • Shares of Aetna (AET | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) fell by more than 5% intraday on Wednesday as sellers dominated the stock early and buyers dominated late. The stock had spent the past six days increasingly overbought territory below the 200-day moving average.

  • A court ruling supporting patent rights for TiVo (TIVO | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) helped send the stock soaring on Wednesday. Closing more than 50% higher, the stock is widely considered to be a more attractive potential take-over candidate in the wake of the ruling.

  • Microsoft (MSFT | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) CEO Ballmer threatened on Wednesday to ship jobs overseas if tax breaks and tax deferments for companies operating overseas were not maintained by the Obama administration. MSFT closed higher for a fifth consecutive trading session on Wednesday and is now overbought above its 200-day moving average.

  • Part of a wave of financial institutions raising capital to repay TARP funds borrowed from the public, American Express (AXP | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) chief Kenneth Chenault said on Wednesday that his firm had met all necessary requirements for repaying the TARP. Shares of American Express pulled back on Wednesday and are increasingly oversold.

  • Alleged collusion in hiring practices has put an investigatory spotlight on a number of technology companies including Google (GOOG | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating), Yahoo! (YHOO | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) and Apple (AAPL | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating). The U.S. Justice Department is looking into whether or not the companies had an agreement not to hire employees from rival companies.

    While both Google and Apple have closed higher for the past five consecutive trading days, shares of Yahoo pulled back on Wednesday - though buyers kept the stock off its intraday lows.
