Chicago Bridge & Iron Company N.V. (CBI) saw a big move last session, as the company’s shares fell over 5% 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 trend of the company, as the stock is now trading within the volatile price range of $81.9 to $87.7 in the past one-month time frame.
