Josh Brown commented on Hershey Co's (NYSE: HSY) 2 percent decline. He wouldn't buy the dip because the company's earnings showed weaker global sales. The company is struggling because of higher dairy prices and stronger dollar. The dividend yield is not attractive enough for the staples space and the chart looks terrible, thinks Brown. He would avoid this stock.

Gilead Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: GILD) managed to beat estimates on Tuesday despite lower sales of its hepatitis C drug. Stephen Weiss thinks that this shows that it is not just a hepatitis C company. He has a long position but he doesn't have any more room to add on a dip of 2.26 percent. Weiss believes that the story is going to get just better.
