This can be somewhat determined by looking at the beta of the stock. The higher the beta, the more the stock generally will fluctuate.
According to Yahoo finance, there are about 62 stocks with a beta of more than 4.0. A couple on that list are Ebay, Amazon, Nvidia, AMD, and Expedia. They all have betas between 4 and 5. Some of the smaller cap stocks have much larger betas.
Here is a graph showing Ebay vs S&P to give you an idea

Technology stocks seem to have the most volatility.
