·2 min read

One stock that might be an intriguing choice for investors right now is Bridgewater Bancshares, Inc. BWB. This is because this security in the Banks - Northeast space is seeing solid earnings estimate revision activity, and is in great company from a Zacks Industry Rank perspective.

This is important because, often times, a rising tide will lift all boats in an industry, as there can be broad trends taking place in a segment that are boosting securities across the board. This is arguably taking place in Banks - Northeast space as it currently has a Zacks Industry Rank of 35 out of more than 250 industries, suggesting it is well-positioned from this perspective, especially when compared to other segments out there.

Meanwhile, Bridgewater Bancshares is actually looking pretty good on its own too. The firm has seen solid earnings estimate revision activity over the past two months, suggesting analysts are becoming a bit more bullish on the firm’s prospects in both the short and long term.

In fact, over the past two months, current quarter estimates have risen from 36 cents per share to 37 cents per share, while current year estimates have risen from $1.57 per share to $1.60 per share.  This has helped BWB to earn a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), further underscoring the company’s solid position.
