Conns Inc. (CONN) saw a big move last session, as the company’s shares fell nearly 43% on the day. The move came on pretty good volume too with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This continues the recent downtrend for CONN, as the stock is now down more than 52% in the past one-month time frame.

The company has seen a flat track record when it comes to current year estimate revisions over the past few weeks. The consensus for earnings hasn’t been in a trend either. This recent price action is discouraging, so make sure to keep a close watch on this firm in the near future, and especially on earnings estimates following the recent slump.

CONN currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) while its Earnings ESP is zero.
