Investing.com -- Stocks were mixed at midday Tuesday as investors waited for clarity on the direction of negotiations over raising the debt ceiling, with a June 1 deadline just weeks away. Here are the market movers for May 16.
- Home Depot Inc (NYSE:HD) shares fell 1.4% after the home improvement retailer reported weaker-than-expected sales for the first quarter and lowered its outlook for the year as shoppers cut down on spending. Same-store sales fell 4.5%.
- Capital One Financial Corporation (NYSE:COF) shares rose 2.4% after Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRKa) disclosed it had taken on a new 9.9 million share position in the card company as of the end of the first quarter.
- Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) shares were up 1.3% in anticipation of the electric vehicle maker's annual shareholder meeting this afternoon. Earlier, billionaire George Soros' fund disclosed it no longer had a stake in the company.
- Horizon Therapeutics PLC (NASDAQ:HZNP) shares were falling 15% after the Federal Trade Commission sued to block its $28 billion acquisition by pharma company Amgen Inc (NASDAQ:AMGN).
-
