Read MoreHide Full Article
Spire Global, Inc. (SPIR - Free Report) shares soared 5.7% in the last trading session to close at $13.24. The move was backed by solid volume with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This compares to the stock's 19.6% loss over the past four weeks.
Per a report by MarketBeat, Spire Global’s shares have earned an average rating of "Moderate Buy" from the seven research firms that are currently covering the company. This must have boosted investors’ confidence in SPIR, thereby resulting in the latest uptick in its share price.
This company is expected to post quarterly loss of $0.10 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +80.4%. Revenues are expected to be $31.83 million, up 16.5% from the year-ago quarter.
Earnings and revenue growth expectations certainly give a good sense of the potential strength in a stock, but empirical research shows that trends in earnings estimate revisions are strongly correlated with near-term stock price movements.
For Spire, 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 SPIR going forward to see if this recent jump can turn into more strength down the road.
Spire is a member of the Zacks Aerospace - Defense industry. One other stock in the same industry, Northrop Grumman (NOC - Free Report) , finished the last trading session 0.5% higher at $469.54. NOC has returned -5.9% over the past month.
Northrop Grumman's consensus EPS estimate for the upcoming report has remained unchanged over the past month at $6.24. Compared to the company's year-ago EPS, this represents a change of -0.5%. Northrop Grumman currently boasts a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold).
