On the upside

Raymond James analyst Daryl Swetlishoff upgraded Domtar (NYSE: UFS) after the paper maker reported surprisingly strong third quarter results on Friday.

A unit of Revlon (NYSE: REV) is in discussions to amend its credit agreements.

Shares of Entercom Communications (NYSE: ETM) rose ahead of its earnings release after market close.

On the downside

CapitalSource (NYSE: CSE) swung to a larger than expected third quarter loss due to significant loan loss provisions.

Although Dean Foods (NYSE: DF) reported higher third quarter earnings, the company's outlook disappointed.

Modine Manufacturing (NYSE: MOD) executive vice president, chief financial officer and director Bradley C. Richardson resigned.

In the broad market, advancing issues outpaced decliners by a margin of nearly 5 to 4 on the NYSE while decliners edged out advancers by nearly 10 to 9 on Nasdaq. The Russell 2000 which tracks small cap stocks eased a fraction to 562.
