Agrium Inc. (AGU) Looks Good: Stock Adds 5.5% in Session

Zacks Equity Research
Updated

Agrium Inc. AGU was a big mover last session, as the company saw its shares rise nearly 6% on the day. The move came on solid volume too with 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 $90.41 to $94.77 in the past one-month time frame.

Although the company has seen no estimate revisions in the past months, its Zacks Consensus Estimate has also moved lower over the past two months, 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.

Agriumcurrently has a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell) while its Earnings ESP is negative.
