Three Active stocks among hottest: Twitter (NYSE:TWTR), PMC-Sierra (NASDAQ:PMCS), CSX (NYSE:CSX)

On Wednesday, Shares of Twitter Inc (NYSE:TWTR), gained 1.10% to $29.38. The stock attained the volume of 27.55 million shares, despite CEO Jack Dorsey prepares to lead two public companies after Square filed for its initial public offering late afternoon.

Mobile payments company Square filed for an IPO with an initial offering size of $275 million, but the amount will likely change, Bloomberg reports. Square will trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol SQ.

The public offering means that Square CEO Dorsey, who was officially named Twitter’s CEO this month as well, will be in the unusual position of commanding two public companies and the even more unusual position of leading one as it goes through an IPO, according to Fortune.

Twitter, Inc. operates as a global platform for public self-expression and conversation in real time. It offers various products and services for users, counting Twitter that allows users to create, distribute, and discover content; and Vine and video, a mobile application that enables users to create and distribute short looping videos.

Shares of PMC-Sierra Inc (NASDAQ:PMCS), surged 0.49% to $10.32, during its last trading session.

PMC-Sierra, Inc. (PMC®) (PMCS), the semiconductor and software solutions innovator transforming networks that connect, move and store big data, recently declared the Company will release its third quarter earnings results on Monday, October 26, 2015, following the close of the U.S. stock market.

PMC-Sierra, Inc. designs, develops, markets, and supports semiconductor solutions for communications network infrastructure equipment worldwide. Its semiconductor devices enable networking equipment primarily in three markets, counting storage, optical, and mobile networks.

Finally, CSX Corporation (NYSE:CSX), ended its last trade with -1.88% loss, and closed at $27.19.

CSX Corporation (CSX) declared net earnings of $507 million for the third quarter of 2015, as compared to $509 million for the same period in 2014, which translates to a third quarter record $0.52 per share, contrast to $0.51 in the preceding year.

Revenue declined nine percent in the quarter, as gains in price were more than offset by the combination of lower fuel recovery, a three percent volume decline and continued transition in CSX’s business mix. At the same time, expenses declined 11 percent on the collective effect of continued low fuel prices, cost reductions reflecting lower volume and savings from efficiency initiatives. The resulting $933 million in operating income drove a third quarter record operating ratio of 68.3 percent.

CSX is still targeting its full-year expectations for earnings per share growth in the mid-single digits and meaningful margin expansion as it progresses toward its longer-term aim of a full-year operating ratio in the mid-60s. These targets remain intact despite expectations for 2015 coal revenue to decline about $450 million primarily due to continued low natural gas prices and high inventory levels. In that regard, the company now anticipates domestic coal volume to decline by more than 10 percent in 2015, while the full-year outlook for export coal volume remains about 30 million tons. These noteworthy coal headwinds are now also predictable to continue in 2016.

CSX Corporation, together with its auxiliaries, provides rail-based transportation services in the United States and Canada. It offers traditional rail services, and transports intermodal containers and trailers.
