Zacks

Huron Consulting Group Inc. (HURN) was a big mover last session, as the company saw its shares rise nearly 6% on the day. The uptrend came on the back of the company’s announcement of an agreement to acquire Studer Group. This led to far more shares changing hands than in a normal session resulting in solid volume. This also continues the recent uptrend for the company as the stock is now up 13.53% since Jan 6, 2015.

None of the estimates for this consulting stock were revised over the past 30 days. The Zacks Consensus Estimate also remained unchanged over the same time frame. Yesterday’s price action is encouraging though, so make sure to keep a close watch on this firm in the near future.

Huron Consulting currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) while its Earnings ESP is 0.00%.

A better-ranked stock in the same industry is Stantec Inc. (STN), sporting a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
