Altisource Portfolio Solutions (ASPS - Free Report) shares soared 8.4% in the last trading session to close at $11.19. The move was backed by solid volume with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This compares to the stock's 14.2% loss over the past four weeks.
The increased investor optimism can be attributed to high inflation and a rise in rates that are expected to result in a spike in delinquency rates and expand the company’s addressable market for default services. A likely pick-up in foreclosures and new product launches in the origination segment are expected to support business volume. This has likely sparked investor interest in the stock.
This real estate services firm is expected to post quarterly loss of $0.25 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +68.8%. Revenues are expected to be $48.92 million, up 17.5% from the year-ago quarter.
While earnings and revenue growth expectations are important in evaluating the potential strength in a stock, empirical research shows a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock price movements.
For Altisource Portfolio, the consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days. And a stock's price usually doesn't keep moving higher in the absence of any trend in earnings estimate revisions. So, make sure to keep an eye on ASPS going forward to see if this recent jump can turn into more strength down the road.
