Each day we dig into the StockTwits stream and pull out the morning buzz.  Here’s what we found today: Last night rumors came out that $GOOG is looking to buy $YELP for half a billion dollars!  $GOOG has been quite a busy acquirer lately:

$CELG is a big mover today – up almost 10%.  I love how @mhuckman tweets out the relevant info for everyone to see and act on.  The only guy at CNBC that gets it!

$ETFC was another stock on the move this morning.  It’s a @ToddSullivan ValuePlays pick and he’s an excellent deep-value investor:

@BladeTrading shares two great sell side predictions for $twentyten.  I can’t believe Tobias Lefkovich still has a job!

The homebuilders, $BZH, $HOV, $TOL, $LEN starting to get some love from Moody’s. I’m a big proponent of RENTING but this is definitely an interesting market development:

Carl Icahn, fresh off his $YHOO FAIL is loading up on $TTWO. I agree with @robpas:

Meredith Whitney is out with a downgrade on $JPM.  Usually when she speaks, the market listens.  Not today, stock up 1%.

@FullCarry – an excellent economic and fixed income mind out with a great comment on the recent run up in oil, nat gas in the face of a strong dollar.  Bullish sign:

Bullish Sentiment hasn’t been this high since 2007:
