Bio-Reference Laboratories (BRLI) Crumbles: Stock Tumbles by 9.2% – Tale of the Tape

ZacksBio-Reference Laboratories Inc. (BRLI) saw a big move last session, as the company’s shares fell by about 9% on the day. The move came on pretty good 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 below the volatile price range of $30.96 to $32.60 in the past one-month time frame.

This clinical diagnostic laboratory services provider 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 of this firm in the near future, and especially on earnings estimates following the recent slump.

BRLI currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).

Some better-ranked stocks in the broader medical sector include ICU Medical, Inc. (ICUI), Abaxis, Inc. (ABAX) and Conatus Pharmaceuticals Inc. (CNAT). While ICU Medical sports a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), Abaxis and Conatus hold a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).
