CNBC's Fast Money Recap Oct. 30th

Crude Oil: Crude oil declined 3% today as investors now fear that the global growth story might be in jeopardy. Finerman said that if you feel the US economy is going to slow down, then demand for oil will also drop. She would look to short the United States Oil Fund (USO). Adami said that shorting Exxon Mobil (XOM) ahead of earnings is a gutsy trade that could pay off big. Dylan Ratigan mentions one more way to short oil is to buy the UltraShort Oil & Gas ProShares (DUG).
Technology: Adami liked hearing that Dell (DELL) is announcing a big buyback, while the stock is at a 52 week high. Najarian says this plays well for Dell, as well as Apple (AAPL), Hewlett-Packard (HPQ) and Microsoft (MSFT). The Wall Street Journal reported that Verizon (VZ) and Google (GOOG) are discussing a mobile phone partnership.
Video Games: International Game Technology (IGT) and Electronic Arts (ERTS) are both set to report earnings this week. Macke thinks the trade is to buy Activison (ATVI), Nintendo (NTDOY) and Microsoft. Najarian noted monster options activity in the November $17.50 calls for Take-Two Interactive (TTWO). The action makes him think that TTWO is set to move higher.
Word on the Street
Procter & Gamble (PG) reports a 14% rise in profits but disappoints Wall Street on its full-year outlook. Najarian favors Colgate-Palmolive (CL) overseas.
Merrill Lynch (MER) drops after former CEO Stan O'Neal leaves. Finerman doubts the CO-CEO arrangement will work. Adami continues to like Raymond James (RJF).
Wynn Resorts (WYNN) fell in after-hours trading. Najarian would look to buy the stock on selloff. Adami would rather be long Las Vegas Sands (LVS) and Boyd Gaming (BYD).
Under Armour (UA) trades up 7% on strong earnings.
Masco also traded up 4% on strong earnings.
Pops & Drops
Pops - Goodyear Tire (GT) traded up 8%.
