1. Electronic Arts [EA]


Electronic Arts shares are rallying close 6% in the pre-market. A report from NPD Group that console sales surged 50% in December on a year-over-year could have added to the bullish sentiment.

2. Intel [INTC]


Intel shares are sliding in the pre-market after the chipmaker posted a tepid current-quarter outlook. Investors have worried that the Dow component hasn't done enough to shift its focus away from the slowing PC market and toward mobile devices.

3. General Electric [GE]


It's been a choppy morning for General Electric shares. The blue-chip conglomerate initially rallied on a revenue beat. However, the shares are pulling back over concerns about GE Capital -- the company's financial arm.

UPS is seen as an economic bellwether since so many industries rely on the company for shipping packages. The shares are off 4% in pre-market trading.
