Read MoreHide Full Article

AEGON N.V. (AEG - Free Report) was a big mover last session, as the company saw its shares rise almost 13% on the day. The upside was driven after the company announced solid third-quarter 2016 results. The news also led to far more shares changing hands than in a normal session, resulting in solid volume. This breaks the recent trend of the company, as the stock is now trading above the volatile price range of $4.02 to $4.41 in the past one-month time frame.

None of the estimates for this stock were revised over the past 30 days, while the Zacks Consensus Estimate moved higher suggesting more solid trading ahead. So make sure to keep an eye on this stock going forward to see if this recent jump can turn into more strength down the road.

AEGON has a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell) while its Earnings ESP is 0.00%.
