Stocks Making Significant Moves Midday: Microsoft Surges 15%, Crocs Drops Over 10%, and MarketAxess Jumps 30%

Crocs saw its stock drop over 10% despite beating fiscal second-quarter expectations and raising its fiscal year forecast, primarily due to weaker-than-expected margins and light third-quarter estimates.

Meta Platforms' stock fell more than 9% after missing earnings per share estimates by $1.04 and providing a lower-than-expected revenue forecast for the third quarter. MarketAxess shares jumped 30% following an acquisition announcement by Intercontinental Exchange at a premium of nearly 33%.

Quanta Services also rose nearly 15% after beating revenue and earnings expectations and raising its guidance. Other notable movements included PBF Energy's 15% increase due to strong gross margins, while Teladoc Health's stock plummeted 29% after missing revenue expectations and lowering its full-year guidance.
