CalAmp (CAMP) Moves 5.6% Higher: Will This Strength Last?
Read MoreHide Full Article
CalAmp (CAMP - Free Report) shares rallied 5.6% in the last trading session to close at $6.05. This move can be attributable to notable volume with a higher number of shares being traded than in a typical session. This compares to the stock's 6.1% loss over the past four weeks.
CalAmp is benefiting from growing demand for its Supply Chain Visibility solution among pan-European transportation and logistics operators.
This wireless communications company is expected to post quarterly loss of $0.05 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -162.5%. Revenues are expected to be $69.56 million, down 12.7% from the year-ago quarter.
Earnings and revenue growth expectations certainly give a good sense of the potential strength in a stock, but empirical research shows that trends in earnings estimate revisions are strongly correlated with near-term stock price movements.
For CalAmp, the consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days. And a stock's price usually doesn't keep moving higher in the absence of any trend in earnings estimate revisions. So, make sure to keep an eye on CAMP going forward to see if this recent jump can turn into more strength down the road.
CalAmp is a member of the Zacks Electronics - Miscellaneous Components industry. One other stock in the same industry, Yaskawa Electric Corp. (YASKY - Free Report) , finished the last trading session 0.6% higher at $63.82. YASKY has returned -5.5% over the past month.
