Apple iPhone 7 launches, Deutsche Bank balks at settlement, Unilever in talks to buy Honest Co.

Here are some of the stocks the Yahoo Finance team will be watching for you today.

Apple (AAPL) is relatively flat this morning after a 12% jump in the stock the past week. The iPhone 7 officially went on sale today. People from Sydney to Shanghai were waiting at stores to be the first people with the phone. Apple stock is at its highest point since the beginning of the year.

Oracle (ORCL) is down slightly as the company reported earnings and revenue for the quarter ending in August that missed Wall Street expectations. Steep declines in Oracle’s software licensing business undercut strong sales in its cloud-computing unit. Oracle is trying to catch up to Microsoft and Amazon in cloud computing. Shares of Oracle are up 14% this year.

Deutsche Bank (DB) was down 9% before the bell. This after word that the US Justice Department wants the German bank to pay $14 billion to settle claims it packaged toxic mortgage securities before the financial crisis. Deutsche Bank said in a statement it doesn’t expect to settle for “anywhere near” $14 billion. Analysts have said the bank may end up paying between $2 billion and $5 billion.

Unilever (UL) is in talks to buy Honest Company, the business co-founded by actress Jessica Alba, according to reports. The Wall Street Journal says Unilever is discussing a deal worth more than $1 billion. Honest sells disposable baby diapers, beauty products and natural cleaning products.
