Read MoreHide Full Article

Amprius Technologies (AMPX - Free Report) shares ended the last trading session 27.3% higher at $5.03. The jump came on an impressive volume with a higher-than-average number of shares changing hands in the session. This compares to the stock's 28.7% loss over the past four weeks.

Amprius has continued its upward momentum for the third consecutive day, fueled by positive sentiment surrounding the successful integration of its high-energy density cells into advanced battery packs. The packs are created by Tenergy, a prominent provider of comprehensive power solutions within the rechargeable battery sector.

This battery maker is expected to post quarterly loss of $0.12 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -100%. Revenues are expected to be $0.6 million, down 26.8% 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 Amprius, 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 AMPX going forward to see if this recent jump can turn into more strength down the road.
