Morning mooers! It is Thursday, June 6th, the market is pulling back a bit from all time highs hit three minutes before the market closed yesterday. $NVIDIA (NVDA.US)$ hit its own all time highs Wednsday, climbing above $3T in market cap and to the second position for most valuable companies, but pulled back Thursday before the stock is due to split 10-1 Friday June 7th.

My name is Kevin Travers. I am home sick today, but here are your stories heard on Wall Street today.

Trytosaveabit : Thanks for the update! I’ve been enjoying/watching the 10 month uptrend at $Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG.US)$. And now a vote approved a 50-1 split! Im sure after split price may suffer a bit? But it will allow many more to buy!
