In the days’ stock news:

Teladoc closed down over 3% following a downgrade to equal weight from overweight at Stephens. The Wall Street firm said increased competition could be an overhang for the “stay-at-home” stock.
Eastman Kodak jumped almost 60% after The Wall Street Journal reported that a government watchdog found no wrongdoing in Kodak getting a government loan to produce pharmaceutical ingredients. The loan, worth more than $700 million, sent shares soaring when it was first announced in July, but Kodak’s stock deflated when a government agency put the deal on hold.
