14:17 ET -- Norfolk Southern is one of the most mentioned companies in the U.S. across all news items in the last 12 hours, according to Factiva data. The railroad operator named John Orr, former chief transformation officer of Canadian Pacific Kansas City, to take over as chief operating officer from Paul Duncan, who left to pursue other opportunities. Norfolk Southern paid Canadian Pacific Kansas City $25 million to waive Orr's non-compete agreement. Dow Jones & Co. owns Factiva. (jennifer.tershak@wsj.com)
