The Austin, Texas-based company, which is looking to produce uranium in the U.S., completed the initial portion of the Goliad ISR Uranium Project, its first such project. Experiencing pain, CineMark Holdings (CNK Quote) traded down 9% to $12.72. Morgan Stanley downgraded the Plano, Texas, movie theater chain to equal-weight from overweight and gave the stock a $16 price target, citing the potential for pressure to build on shares if disappointing domestic box office sales weigh on results.

The Fairlawn, Ohio, specialty chemicals company posted a fiscal second-quarter loss of $3.1 million, or 7 cents a share -- narrower than the $9.8 million, or 23 cents a share, loss it reported a year ago and but short of the 2 cents per-share profit analysts expected.- Loading Comments...
