QVC buys Zulily, Estée Lauder gets skinned, Sprint dials up iPhone gains

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

Zulily (ZU)

Zulily is soaring after Liberty Media's (LMCA, LMCB, LMCK) QVC announced plans to buy the online retailer. The deal, worth $2. 4 billion dollars in cash and stock, is a 54% premium to Friday's close. But that puts Zulily's value at less than half its $5 billion valuation on its first trading day in November, 2013.

Estée Lauder (EL)

Estée Lauder not looking so pretty. Shares of the makeup giant are down despite better-than-expected quarterly profits. That's in part because revenues of $2.52 billion dollars were slightly below what Wall Street anticipated. The top line was hit after sales of moisturizers and cleansers fell 16 percent. Estée Lauder also offered full-year earnings guidance of $3.10 to $3.17 a share, a bit below the $3.29 a share analysts have been looking for.

Sprint (S)

Sprint is dialing up gains thanks to its latest iPhone offer.  America's fourth-placed mobile company is launching an "iPhone Forever" program that lets users upgrade to the latest iPhone for a fee of $22 a month.
On Thursday it was reported that SoftBank, Sprint's largest shareholder, bought an additional $87 million worth of stock in the beleaguered mobile carrier. Shares of Sprint are down 18% over the last 12 months.
