NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Banks were some of the most-buzzed-about stocks this week in social media.
Let's not forget, however, about the news that Adidas (ADDYY) has made a $200 million bet to lure James Harden away from Nike (NKE - Get Report).
And more recently, news broke that IBM (IBM - Get Report) and Apple (AAPL - Get Report) have entered into a large partnership to enable IBM corporate customers to bring MacBooks into their existing infrastructures without any additional configuration.
Here's our weekly round-up of the most discussed stocks on Twitter and traditional media channels -- stock-related news that saw the highest levels of engagement among market experts and valid sources.

Nike: News broke earlier this week that Adidas had made a $200 million offer to NBA basketball player James Harden. Nike had been in the process of renegotiating its contract with Harden.
Red Hat (RHT): Red Hat released Red Hat Enterprise Linus OpenStack Platform 7, which includes a host of new features focused on easier deployment and management, better security controls, high availability, network flexibility and faster backups.

Deutsche Bank (DB): U.S. federal prosecutors are investigating billions of dollars of trades Deutsche Bank made on behalf of Russian clients, Bloomberg reported.
