Kindred Healthcare (KND) Falls: Stock Goes Down 8%

Zacks

Kindred Healthcare Inc. KND saw a big move last session, as the company’s shares fell by nearly 8% 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 KND, as the stock is now down over 13% since Dec 1, 2015.

The healthcare services provider has seen a flat record when it comes to current year estimate revisions over the past few weeks (0 increases, 0 decreases), 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.

KND currently has a Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell) while its Earnings ESP is 0.00%.

Investors interested in the same may consider better-ranked stock like Capital Senior Living Corp. CSU, which carries a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
