General Mills (NYSE:GIS) stock fell 3.4% after the packaged foods company cut its annual core net sales and profit forecasts, blaming weaker consumer sentiment.  The company expects annual sales to down 1.5% to 2%, compared to a previous range of down 1% to up 1%.

 

Norwegian Cruise Line (NYSE:NCLH) stock jumped 7.5% after the Wall Street Journal reported activist investor Elliott has built a more than 10% stake in the cruise operator.

Medtronic (NYSE:MDT) stock fell 3.7% after the medical devices company reported lower third-quarter profit, primarily due to higher expenses.

 

Warner Bros Discovery (NASDAQ:WBD) stock jumped 2.9% after the entertainment giant rejected Paramount Skydance’s (NASDAQ:PSKY) latest $30-a-share hostile takeover bid, but is giving the Hollywood studio seven days to see if it can come up with a better deal.
