Read MoreHide Full Article

The recent surge in inTest's share price reflects bullish sentiment of the investors in the stock. Notably, the company has strong fundamentals which is instilling investor confidence.

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 inTest Corporation, 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.
