Midday Market Stats March 13

AK Steel Holding Corporation (NYSE:AKS) is sporting unusual put volume today, though the driver is unknown. So far, 24,000 puts have crossed the tape -- 12 times the average intraday rate -- compared to fewer than 2,000 AKS calls. The March 4 and June 4 puts are most active, with Trade-Alert pointing to a potential roll of bearish bets. At last check, AKS is up 0.7% at $2.84. 

Comfortably at the top of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is Oaktree Capital Group LLC (NYSE:OAK), after Brookfield Asset Management (BAM) said it will buy a 62% stake in the firm. OAK is up 11.7% at $48.94 in afternoon trading, fresh off a three-year high of $49.61.

In the bottom spot on the NYSE is Navios Maritime Holdings Inc. (NYSE:NM), though the catalyst remains unclear. NM stock is set to snap a four-day winning streak, and yesterday ended atop its 80-day moving average for the first time since August. Today, however, NM is back below this trendline, down 22.2% at $2.16.
