Exxon, Chevron rise on oil; American, Delta, United decline; Avon upgraded

Time for your daily dose of trending tickers, the stocks you're following based on your Yahoo Finance ticker searches.

Delta Air Lines, American Airlines and United Continental

Travel stocks declined across the board. Shares of this country's airlines like Delta Air Lines (DAL), American Airlines (AAL) and United Continental (UAL) were all lower after the U.S. issued a global travel alert. Ahead of the busy Thanksgiving weekend, the State Department is warning Americans going abroad to be extra cautious due to "increased terrorist threats."

Exxon Mobil, Chevron

On the flip side, geopolitical risk pushed energy stocks higher. Exxon Mobil (XOM) and Chevron (CVX) were both the blue chips biggest gainers. Oil prices rose as tensions escalated in the Middle East after the downing of a Russian fighter jet by Turkey. The weaker dollar also gave investors additional incentive to buy more commodities.

Avon Products

A bullish call on Wall Street gave Avon Products (AVP) reason to spike. Shares of the beauty company jumped after Citigroup upgraded it to a "buy" rating from a "neutral." The price target was set at $5 a share, that's a potential increase of 75 percent from Monday's closing price. The firm had a positive takeaway from its visit to Avon's Brazil operations and is also expecting optimistic news from its upcoming Investor Day.
