Raptor Pharmaceuticals (RPTP) Crumbles: Stock Falls by 7.2% – Tale of the Tape

Zacks


Raptor Pharmaceuticals Corp. (RPTP) saw a big move in the last trading session, as the company’s shares fell by over 7% 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 for RPTP, as the stock is now down over 11% since Sep 11.

The biopharmaceutical company has not seen any estimate revision over the past month, and the current year earnings consensus 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, especially on earnings estimates following the recent slump.

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

Investors interested in the Med–Biomed/Gene industry may consider better-ranked stocks like Cambrex Corporation. (CBM), Gilead Sciences Inc. (GILD) and PDL BioPharma, Inc. (PDLI), each of which holds a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
