Six Flags reported earnings of 53 cents per share on revenue of $435 million. Analysts surveyed by Refinitiv forecast earnings of $1.01 per share on revenue of $519 million. The theme park operator attributed the miss to weak attendance, or a 22% drop in visitors.

Pharma stocks –Shares of Pfizer, GSK and Sanofi slipped 3.5%, 9.8% and 3.3% respectively as investors watched ongoing litigation around Zantac, a recalled heartburn medication.
