This report is an intraday check of some of the more notable stocks that have hit a 52-week high or low so far today.

52-Week High:

Walt Disney Co. (NYSE: DIS) high of $38.00. Following an early release of their fourth quarter earnings yesterday, shares rebounded from an initial drop to hit a new 52-week high today. Positive comments came out from Nomura, Goldman Sachs, Barclays, UBS, Deutsche Bank, and Janney on earnings and conference call.
Sensata Technologies Holding NV (NYSE: ST) high of $25.50. Seeing a jump today following the pricing of a 20 million ordinary share offering at $24.10 per share. Shares notably closed at $24.20 yesterday, so investor outlook may be driving the shares today.
Dillard's Inc. (NYSE: DDS) high of $32.52. Up over 10% today as the retailer reported a third quarter EPS of $0.22, beating an EPS of $0.11 reported for the same period in 2009. Revs of $1.37 billion fell short of $1.39 billion reported for the same period last year. The boost in EPS was attributed to lower advertising, selling, administrative and general expenses reduced from $402.1 million to $398.5 million.
Tesla Motors, Inc. (Nasdaq: TSLA) high of $30.45. Though not a 52-week high "technically," the stock is at its highest point following its IPO surge over the summer. Might be seeing more enthusiasm following their third quarter earnings win, and the imminent IPO of General Motors, not to mention CEO Elon Musk's comments about expanding into Japan and seeing them generate a "third" of total revs, with equal parts shared by the U.S. and Europe.

52-Week Low:

MELA Sciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: MELA) low of $5.23. Trading lower ahead of their November 18, 2010, FDA panel meeting for MelaFind. Seeking Alpha also put an article out on how to trade the shares ahead of the meeting, which may be influcing trading today, as shares became a little weaker yesterday following the article.
Scientific Games Corporation (Nasdaq: SGMS) low of $7.45. Trading near the low, as shares saw a drop following their third quarter earnings report, and subsequent correcting-and-replacing of some information in the report. Shares hit a ceiling of $10.75 over the last 60-days, and have been on a downtrend since mid-September. Volume is a little elevated as well, this one might have a bit further to travel before any bounce.
Dynavox Inc. (Nasdaq: DVOX) low of $4.40. Hanging out in the $4.40 - $4.50 range following a first quarter earnings report which produced an adjusted loss of $0.04 on revs of $21.6 million, compared to consensus EPS of $0.05 and revs of $24 million. DVOX also sees an FY11 EPS of $0.21 - $0.27, versus $0.11 consensus. The company increased its FY11 sales growth outlook from down 14% - 17% to down 10% - 15%.
