Westport Fuel Systems (WPRT) Jumps: Stock Moves 19.8% Higher
Westport Fuel Systems Inc. (WPRT - Free Report) was a big mover last session, as its shares rose almost 20% on the day. The move came after the company announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell the assets of its Auxiliary Power Unit business for $70 million. This led to far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This breaks the recent trend of the company, as the stock is now trading above the volatile price range 85 cents to $1.18 in the past one-month time frame.
Over the last 30 days, the company witnessed one positive and two negative estimate revisions while the Zacks Consensus Estimate also moved lower over the same time frame, suggesting there may be trouble down the road. So make sure to keep an eye on this stock going forward to see if this recent move higher can last.
Westport Fuel Systems currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) while its Earnings ESP is 0.00%.
