Investors are keeping their fingers crossed and hoping that Radiant Logistics will deliver a solid performance and surpass the earnings estimate in the to-be-reported quarter as well.

This is because a stock needs to have — a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) — for this to happen.
