Wednesday's Market Movers and Shakers: MasterCard, Scripps, Costco

By Alison Southwick, Taylor Muckerman, and Jason Moser – Dec 11, 2013 at 6:14PM

'Tis the season to be a MasterCard shareholder, and Joy Global delivers some ghastly earnings. Here are four stocks making moves on the market today.

On Wednesday's edition of Investor Beat, host Alison Southwick and Motley Fool analysts Taylor Muckerman and Jason Moser take investors through the biggest stories from the market today.

MasterCard (MA 0.30%) delivers Christmas early for shareholders with a stock buyback and boosted dividend. Discovery Communications (DISCK +0.00%) eyes acquiring Scripps Network (SNI +0.00%). Costco (COST 0.80%) misses on earnings, but that's not the number to watch. And Joy Global (JOY +0.00%) delivers a cringe-worthy earnings report. In this segment from today's Investor Beat, Jason and Taylor talk about the stocks making moves on Wednesday.
