CNBC's Stock Pops & Drops From August 15

Pete Najarian spoke on CNBC's Stock Pops & Drops about Autodesk ADSK.

He was surprised to see the stock trading 6.43 percent lower because the company posted better-than-expected earnings and revenues and it also raised its guidance. Autodesk opened the session higher, but it failed to keep the gains as it turned lower together with the market. Najarian decided to buy the stock on the weakness.

Monster Beverage MNST spiked 30.48 percent on Friday and Brian Kelly explained that the stock traded higher on the news that The Coca-Cola Company KO bought a stake in Monster Beverage. Although the stock is up, Kelly finds it difficult to buy it at this price level. He would take profits.

Tim Seymour thinks that J.C. Penney JCP is showing signs of stabilization as it managed to post three consecutive earnings reports above the market's expectations. He believes that you can stay in this name despite Friday's pullback of 2.46 percent.

Gilead Sciences GILD popped 3.25 percent and Guy Adami thinks that it will continue to trade higher
