Expedia, (EXPE), the online travel agency, also soared Friday, by 28 percent at $41.69, even though the company posted a quarterly loss of $3.3 million. The company's adjusted earnings were better than expected, according to Reuters.

On the losing side, Allscripts Healthcare Solutions (MDRX) plunged 43 percent to a bit over $9 a share. Bloomberg reported the company, a provider of electronic health records, fired its chairman, and three directors resigned in protest.

Callaway Golf Co. (ELY), which posted earnings and revised guidance Thursday, was off 16 percent.

Consumer products giant Procter & Gamble (PG), one of the Dow industrials, was off 3 percent. The company cut its profit outlook amid growing competition, according to Reuters.
