Live Oak Bancshares Tumbles: LOB Falls 6.5% in Session

Zacks

Live Oak Bancshares, Inc. LOB saw a big move last session, as the company’s shares fell by over 6% 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 LOB, as the stock is now down 10% since Nov 30.

The southeast banking company has seen a flat track record when it comes to current year estimate revisions over the past few weeks and 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.

LOB currently has a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell) while its Earnings ESP is 0.00%.

A better-ranked stock in the same sector is Franklin Financial Network, Inc. FSB, holding a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
