Yahoo Finance

It's a mixed day on Wall Street with the Dow Jones Industrial Avergae (^DJI) trailing the other major indices (^GSPC, ^IXIC) after several earnings reports and some M&A activity earllier in the day moved the needle. Investors are keeping an eye on some other big names set to report in the coming days including Chipotle (CMG), McDonald's (MCD), Facebook (FB) and Google (GOOGL). Yahoo Finance's Aaron Task breaks them all down in the attached video.

Here are some of the other stories Yahoo Finance is keeping an eye on today.

Chinese developer defaults
Chinese real estate developer, Kaisa, popular with Western investors has defaulted on its debt - further proof that traders should, at the very least, be wary of investing there. Is it just the first domino to fall?

Food saftey
It’s a bad day for delicious food. According to the Centers for Disease Control, Blue Bell ice cream is the source of a listeria outbreak that has affected eight adults, killing three. We’re also hearing about an outbreak of Bird Flu. About 5.3 million chickens in Iowa have been hit.

Sex sells
We all know it and now there’s proof. ‘Adults only’ stocks are popping. RCI Hospitality Holdings (RICK) which is an operator of some popular... gentlemans clubs just reported record sales and Ashley Madison, an adulterous dating website, is set to IPO on the London Stock Exchange.
