HZO

The Michaels Companies, Inc. was a big mover last session, as the company saw its shares rise more than 8% on the day.

This stock, which remained volatile and traded within the range of $11.68 –$14.32 in the past one-month time frame, witnessed a sharp increase yesterday.

The upmove came after the company reported fiscal fourth-quarter 2018 results.

The company has seen a mixed track record when it comes to estimate revisions of one increase and no decrease over the past few weeks, while the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the current quarter remained unchanged. The recent price action is encouraging though, so make sure to keep a close watch on this firm in the near future.
