3. Delta Air Lines, Inc. DAL's stock should have been "bathing in red ink" after the airliner detailed what impact Hurricanes Harvey and Irma will have on the airline. Yet the reaction among investors was a "mad scramble to buy the stock of any airline, not just Delta."

4. Sherwin-Williams Co SHW's acquisition of Valspar in 2016 wasn't well received by many investors but the company's announcement of synergy expectations from the deal turned the "mundane into the miraculous."

5. The ongoing strength in home building data has many experts calling for a peak before the "business falls off a cliff," yet there is no sign of that happening anytime soon.

6. It may seem hard to grasp, but the data breach scandal that plagued Equifax Inc. EFX may not matter. Investors are looking to buy the stock because financial institutions continue using Equifax's products and services "as if nothing happened."

7. Domino's Pizza, Inc. DPZ may be a prime example of a stock where Wall Street analysts look at the company and say: "'Gee, I've got to put on some more buy recommendations. I'm being left behind." Most recently, analysts at Stifel upgraded the pizza chain to Buy.
