SouFun Rebounds After Hitting New Low

SouFun Holdings Ltd (NYSE:SFUN) surged +16.13% early in the day, rebounding after hitting a new 52-week low yesterday. The China-based online real estate portal hasn’t had the best of years, as its price has declined more than -40% in 2014. But Tiger Global boosted its stake in the company to one of 14 million shares in Q3 – a sign it expects things to turn around.

GameStop Stalls on Disappointing Sales

GameStop Corp. (NYSE:GME) reached the middle of the day posting a -12.49% loss. The company reported a dip in total global sales for Q3 yesterday, citing the delayed launch of one of the year’s biggest games as the cause.

Lions Gate Entertainment Corp. (USA) (NYSE:LGF) fell -5.74%, coming back down after rallying ahead of the latest Hunger Games film release. The global entertainment company has gained +4.45% year-to-date.

The Gap Inc. (NYSE:GPS) tumbled -5.21% early in the day this Friday after announcing plans to overhaul leadership at Gap and Banana Republic and lowering its profit expectations for the year. Both Steve Mandel and Ray Dalio have positions in the apparel giant, which has gained a modest +3.74% over the past month.
