Gentiva Health Services, Inc. (GTIV) was a big mover last session, as the company saw its shares rise a little over 6% on the day. This jump can be attributable to solid volume too with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This rise reverses the recent trend of the company, as the stock is now trading above the volatile price range of $10.77 to $12.08 in the past one-month time frame.
Over the last 30 days, Gentiva witnessed one upward estimate revision, while five estimates went down. The Zacks Consensus Estimate moved down by a notch in the same period, suggesting there may be trouble down the road. So make sure to keep an eye on this stock going forward to see if Friday’s move higher can last.
Gentiva Health Services currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) while its Earnings ESP is 0.00%.
Some better-ranked stocks in the healthcare industry include Addus HomeCare Corporation (ADUS) and Heska Corporation (HSKA) with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy). HEALTHSOUTH Corp. (HLS) with a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) is also worth considering.
