Friday the 13th proved to be less-than-spooky for investors today, as stocks had a relatively smooth day on the back of solid gains from tech leaders like Facebook, Netflix, and Tesla.
Nevertheless, some investors were still in the mood to punish companies with disappointing news. Just take a look at Nintendo, which fell nearly 6% after announcing a higher-than-expected debut price point for its new Nintendo Switch console.
Shares of Nintendo (NTDOY - Free Report) fell more nearly 6% on Friday—hitting their lowest point of 2017—following the company’s announcement of the launch details for its new Nintendo Switch console. The device will hit stores on March 3 for a starting price of $299.

With earnings season approaching quickly, many investors are wondering which of these two is most likely to carry its momentum through its earnings announcement.
On today’s episode of the Zacks Friday Finish Line podcast, Content Writer Ryan McQueeney and Editor Maddy Johnson take on this week’s biggest story: the resolution of Volkswagen’s emission cheating scandal and the start of similar scandal involving Fiat Chrysler . Listen now:
