Tapestry Inc.: Shares of the handbag company gained nearly 15% last week following news that it ousted its chief executive.

Church & Dwight Co. Inc.: Shares of the maker of Arm & Hammer branded products fell nearly 5% last week after hedge-fund manager Spruce Point Capital accused the company of making bad acquisitions and masking financial weakness with questionable accounting practices.
