In recent years, traders and investors have increasingly turned to social media to discuss their investments. Now, interested parties can get a scientific look at what is being discussed on a weekly, monthly, and even hourly basis.
Provided by Social Market Analytics, here is the morning social media outlook for Friday, February 24.
Most Bullish
3D Systems DDD reported impressive earnings yesterday afternoon, which lead to a rally in the company's stock. The CEO appeared on CNBC's Fast Money last evening and stated that the company's CUBE printer would be out in the second quarter of the year.
FX Energy FXEN rallied tremendously yesterday, as shares traded from below $6 to almost $7 by the end of the day. A bullish post published on Seeking Alpha, combined with increasing oil prices may have led to the gain in shares.
Most Bearish
Salesforce CRM is currently up over 7% on the session. The company reported strong earnings results yesterday, which may have moved shares into positive territory, particularly given short interest in the name.

Salesforce
Vivus VVUS appears on the list for the second day in the row, a near doubling of share prices after a positive FDA panel vote may have fueled chatter on the name.
