Read MoreHide Full Article

Vera Bradley, Inc. (VRA - Free Report) was a big mover last session, as the company saw its shares rise almost 11% on the day. The move came after the company reported first-quarter fiscal 2018 results, in line with its guidance. This also 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 of $7.73 to $9.25 in the past one-month time frame.

None of the estimates for this stock were revised in the last 30 days and the Zacks Consensus Estimate also remained unchanged. Yesterday’s price action is encouraging though, so make sure to keep a close watch on this firm in the near future.

Currently, Vera Bradley carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).

A better-ranked stock in the same industry is The Children's Place, Inc. (PLCE - Free Report) , sporting a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy). You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank stocks here.

Here's another stock idea to consider. Much like petroleum 150 years ago, lithium power may soon shake the world, creating millionaires and reshaping geo-politics. Soon electric vehicles (EVs) may be cheaper than gas guzzlers. Some are already reaching 265 miles on a single charge. With battery prices plummeting and charging stations set to multiply, one company stands out as the #1 stock to buy according to Zacks research. It's not the one you think. See This Ticker Free >>
