Whole Foods hacked, Volkswagen hit with another dieselgate bill, Zogenix soars triple digits

Here’s a look at some of the stocks the Yahoo Finance team will be tracking for you today.

Consumers have to deal with another data breach. The latest comes out of Whole Foods. The grocer, which was recently bought by Amazon (AMZN) says card information was stolen from customers who ate at its restaurants and taprooms. Whole Foods says the hack will not impact its regular shoppers or Amazon customers because each company uses a separate checkout system.

Tyson Foods (TSN) shares soared on Friday after it raised its earnings and revenue outlook for the year. The company cites better-than expected beef sales for its positive guidance. Tyson says it also plans to eliminate 450 jobs in an effort to cut costs.

Volkswagen (VLKAY) warns that its diesel emissions scandal will cost it another $3 billion, and that’s expected to take a big bite out of third quarter profits. The costs for repairing diesel cars in the US equipped with emissions cheating software turned out to be higher than expected. Volkswagen must also make hardware fixes and in some cases buy back cars in North America. The emissions cheating scandal has cost the company about $30 billion.

Competition in the tech space is heating up. Google (GOOGL) is reportedly building a smart screen competitor to Amazon’s Echo Show. That’s according to TechCrunch. The device, allegedly codenamed Manhattan, will have a similar screen to the Amazon device. Remember, earlier this week, Google pulled YouTube from the Amazon Echo Show after it said negotiations with the e-commerce giant failed.

Zogenix (ZGNX) rocketed higher, jumping triple digits after the company announced its epilepsy drug passed a late stage test. The drug was successful in reducing the frequency of convulsive seizures in children and young adults.
