Here's what was behind Whole Foods, Bank of Internet, Nike, and Baidu's market moves today.

Whole Foods Market (WFM) stock rose today after UBS raised its price target on the stock by 13%. Bank of Internet (AX 2.41%) came bouncing back today after a rough start to the week, when a presentation at the recent Value Investing Congress made the case for shorting the online bank's stock. Nike (NKE -0.36%) is on the rise after falling 10% recently, after the company got an analyst upgrade. And Baidu (BIDU 2.30%) was up today, on reports that the company's online travel firm is in discussions with Ctrip.com (TCOM 2.81%) about a possible merger.
