Extraordinary momentum in its Famous Footwear business is also a key driver. The stock has been benefiting from positive consumer demand trends and accelerated recovery in the footwear marketplace, which has been aiding its sales. Management anticipates strong performance at the Famous Footwear brand and gains in Brand Portfolio, leveraging of diversified brand model and the continued execution of ongoing strategic priorities to aid CAL’s performance.

Earnings and revenue growth expectations certainly give a good sense of the potential strength in a stock, but empirical research shows that trends in earnings estimate revisions are strongly correlated with near-term stock price movements.
For Caleres Inc., 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 CAL going forward to see if this recent jump can turn into more strength down the road.
