Stocks are up solidly Thursday after European Central Bank President Mario Draghi unequivocally vowed to preserve the euro. The Dow Jones is up 1.53%, the Nasdaq is up 1.32% and the S&P 500 is up 1.37%. Continuing through earnings season, our big winners were able to easily beat Wall St. earnings projections. Meanwhile, one of our losers struggled with low earnings and another had its revenue hit by a weak euro.

Here are Thursday’s market winners and losers.
