Gentiva Health Services Inc. (GTIV) was a big mover last session as its shares rose over 6% on the day. The rise came on solid volume too with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This continues the uptrend for the healthcare company since Nov 5 as the stock is now up almost 18%.
In the last 30-day frame, Gentiva witnessed five negative estimate revisions and the Zacks Consensus Estimate also moved lower, signifying 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 currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) while its Earnings ESP is 0.00%.
Some better-ranked medical stocks include Addus HomeCare Corporation (ADUS), Actelion Ltd. (ALIOF) and Align Technology Inc. (ALGN). All three stocks hold a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
