Wendy’s (WEN) Catches Eye: Stock Moves 6.4% Higher – Tale of the Tape

ZacksThe Wendy's Company (WEN) was a big mover last session with its shares rising over 6% on the day. The move came on solid volume too with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This breaks the recent trend of the company, as the stock is now trading above the past one month’s volatile price range of $8.35 to $8.89.
