NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwired) -- 05/09/13 -- Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: EA), Activision Blizzard, Inc. (NASDAQ: ATVI), Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NYSE: AMD), Fusion-io, Inc. (NYSE: FIO).

Electronic Arts Inc. (EA) saw shares advancing 17.11% or $3.15 per share to close at $21.56 on volume of 22,309,529 shares traded during Wednesday's trading session. The No. 2 U.S. video-game maker, rose the most in 13 years after forecasting annual profit that exceeded analysts' estimates, a result of cost cutting. The company forecast adjusted earnings of $1.20 a share in the year ending in March, exceeding the $1.10 average estimate compiled by Bloomberg. The rise suggests investor optimism for Electronic Arts, which missed financial targets last year and ousted its chief executive officer in March as players shifted to online and mobile games. Electronic Arts is cutting jobs and reducing expenses to cushion against a potentially rocky transition to new consoles, said Chief Financial Officer Blake Jorgensen.
