2) 3M Company (MMM) - Get Report | Percentage Decrease: -2.49% | Friday Closing Price: $167.60
3M Company was one of the leaders in the retreat this week as stocks fell after conflicting reports from the White House and Beijing. We hear the deal is close... but I would not recommend holding your breath on this news. Traders continue to buy the news each time a White House official says the China trade deal is in the final stages but after months of the same lines from the usual suspects, we wonder when traders may stop buying when the boys cry wolf.

3) Walgreens Boots Alliance (WBA) - Get Report | Percentage Decrease: -2.48% | Friday Closing Price: $60.60
Walgreens Boots Alliance was in last week's best performers' list but find themselves on the opposite side of the Dow Jones this week. Walgreens shares surged last week after reports that it may go private but this news was unable to carry the stock this week. Also, if you forget anything on Thanksgiving, they will be open 24 hours on turkey day but I would probably refrain from getting your turkey at Walgreens.
