JetBlue Airways Corporation (JBLU - Free Report) was a big mover last session, as the company saw its shares rise more than 7% on the day. The move came on solid 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 above the volatile price range of $18.25 to $19.78 in the past one-month time frame.
