HealthSouth Corporation HLS was a big mover last session, as the company saw its shares rise almost 8% in the last trading session. The move came after the company reported better-than-expected first-quarter 2017 results. This also led to far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This continues the recent uptrend for the company as the stock is now up nearly 10.3% in the past one-month time frame.
None of the estimates for this stock were revised in the last 30 days and the Zacks Consensus Estimate also remained unchanged. Friday’s price action is encouraging though, so make sure to keep a close watch on this firm in the near future.
Currently, HealthSouth Corporation carries a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell).
