Brasil Telecom S.A. (BTM) was the top performing Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stock on Tuesday, rising 9.9% on strong volume.

The company provides telecommunications services for residential customers and governmental agencies, as well as small, medium, and large companies in Brazil.

Brazilian telecom stocks were on the move Tuesday after Telemar Participacoes, the holding firm of Brazil’s largest telecom company, said it will merge its subsidiaries into one publicly traded vehicle, while four existing units would be wrapped into Brasil Telecom, which would then undergo a name change to Oi SA.

Zumiez Inc. (ZUMZ - Analyst Report) continued its climb higher, gaining 6.4% on Tuesday. The stock is up nearly 16% after the company reported better than expected Q1 results on May 19.

Zumiez is a specialty retailer of action sports related apparel, footwear, equipment and accessories.

The company reported first quarter EPS of 6 cents, well ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 2 cents. Revenue came in at $105.9 million, just ahead of consensus estimates of $105.0 million. Same-store sales were up an impressive 12.6% in the first quarter.

Analysts' estimates shot higher off the strong quarter, sending the stock to a Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy). The 2011 Zacks Consensus Estimate is currently $1.11, 26% above 2010 EPS. The 2012 consensus estimate is $1.31, corresponding to 18% growth.

Other notable top performing Zacks #1 Rank stocks from Tuesday include: Global Crossing Ltd. (GLBC), which jumped 9.5%, Patterson-UTI Energy, Inc. (PTEN), which rose 4.3% and Planar Systems, Inc. (PLNR), which was up 4.2%.
