Core Scientific, Inc. (CORZ - Free Report) shares soared 5.3% in the last trading session to close at $8.42. The move was backed by solid volume with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This compares to the stock's 16.6% loss over the past four weeks.

Core Scientific is benefiting from securing long-term high-performance computing (HPC) contracts, expanding its infrastructure capacity, and diversifying its customer base, which positions it for strong growth and higher profit margins in the future.

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 -152.6%. Revenues are expected to be $99.39 million, down 44.6% 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 Core Scientific, Inc., 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 CORZ going forward to see if this recent jump can turn into more strength down the road.
