Yamana Gold (AUY) Catches Eye: Stock Moves 7.5% Higher

Read MoreHide Full Article

Yamana Gold, Inc. was a big mover last session, as its shares rose almost 8% on the day. The upside was driven by a rebound in the gold market. This also led to far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. Friday’s rally reverses the recent downtrend for the company, as the stock is now down nearly 21% in the past one-month time frame.

Over the last 30 days, the company witnessed one positive and one negative estimate revision while the Zacks Consensus Estimate remained unchanged. Friday’s price action is encouraging though, so make sure to keep a close watch on this firm in the near future.

Yamana Gold currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) while its Earnings ESP is negative.

A better-ranked gold mining stock is AngloGold Ashanti Ltd. (AU - Free Report) with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
