Investing.com -- Main U.S. indexes were mixed Thursday as investors digested a number of economic reports, including data that showed soft retail sales. The weak reading on retail sales was balanced against fewer than expected initial jobless claims.
Here are some of the biggest U.S. stock movers today:
Cisco Systems (NASDAQ:CSCO) declined 2% after it reduced its full-year guidance and detailed plans to cut its global workforce as part of a broader restructuring push.
Deere&Company (NYSE:NYSE:DE) declined 5% after it slashed its full-year net income outlook, in a sign that elevated interest rates are eating away at farmer demand for high-priced agricultural equipment.
