Baidu, Now Joining Apple, Priceline And Amazon Trading At Life-Time Highs (BIDU, AAPL, PCLN, AMZN)

Who would have thunk it six months ago? Perhaps, Jim Cramer knew, but it's as if someone lit a fire under this market. Many thought the positive news from Microsoft (MSFT) may have been already built into the share price, but we disagreed with that consensus viewpoint.

Microsoft's move today and Amazon's (AMZN) move last night has ignited the entire technology sector. Baidu (BIDU) is up $16.88 or 4% or $432 on heavy volume. Baidu is largest search engine in China.

Priceline.com (PCLN) is following the momentum in the tech sector and is up $3.30 to $178.33. Earlier the Nasdaq announced PCLN would be added to the Nasdaq 100.

Amazon is hitting its lifetime high after smashing wall street estimates yesterday.

Although, not at a lifetime high, Compuware (CPWR) is having one heck of a day. Compuware is up 16.20% to $8.25 after also announcing great earnigns.
