Darden's same-restaurant sales rose 6.2 percent during the quarter. Walgreens Boots Alliance — The drugstore chain operator beat forecasts by 3 cents a share, with adjusted quarterly profit of $1.31 per share. Revenue did miss estimates as Walgreens navigates a "challenging retail sales environment," but it said it is making progress in cutting costs and implementing other efficiencies. Twitter — Twitter has won the online streaming rights to Thursday night National Football League games, according to a Bloomberg report. Walt Disney — Chief Operating Officer Tom Staggs is departing the company. He had been seen as a likely successor to CEO Robert Iger, but is said to have made his decision after learning that Disney's board had decided to broaden a search for Iger's successor to include more candidates. AT&T — Macquarie began coverage on the telecommunications company with an "outperform" rating, noting that AT&T is likely to achieve above-GDP growth over the next few years. Starbucks — Starbucks is rated "buy" in new coverage at Evercore, pointing to the consistency of store growth and earnings. The firm thinks the coffee chain can grow earnings at 17 percent annually through 2020. Wendy's — Evercore began coverage on the restaurant chain with a "buy" rating, saying its streamlining effort has made substantial progress. Constellation Brands — Wells Fargo rates the spirits maker "outperform" in new coverage, saying it is positioned to be a leading consumer staples company for years to come. Tesla Motors — Tesla sold 14,820 vehicles during the first quarter, up 50 percent from a year earlier but a lower number than had been expected. The automaker's output was slowed in part by supplier shortages and what Tesla called its own "hubris in adding far too much new technology to the Model X." Allergan — Allergan shares are under heavy pressure, following the announcement of new anti-inversion deal rules from the Treasury Department that could endanger its pending $160 million merger withPfizer. For its part, Pfizer said it was reviewing the Treasury's actions and added that it would not speculate on any potential impact on the combination of the two drug makers.

Sprint — The mobile carrier struck a deal with Amazon which will allow customers to add the Amazon Prime service for an extra $10.99 per month. That adds up to more than Amazon Prime's $99 annual fee, but also allows customers the chance to stay or leave one month at a time. Willis Towers Watson — The consulting firm now has Valueact Capital as a 5.9 percent stakeholder, according to a Securities and Exchange Commission filing. Valueact considers the shares undervalued and plans to have conversations with management about how to enhance shareholder value. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Here are this morning's most active trending discussions at this hour- (stock symbols are clickable!)

A close at 17,596 or below on the Dow is going to continue the selling. Otherwise expect a bounce around there tomorrow if we close above.
