Ashford Hospitality Prime (AHP) Catches Eye: Stock Up 6.7%

Ashford Hospitality Prime, Inc. (AHP) was a big mover last session with its shares rising roughly 7% on the day. The upside came as Canaccord Genuity upgraded the stock from “Hold” to “Buy” based on the company's sale prospects. This led to solid volume too with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. Yesterday’s rally breaks the recent trend of the company, as the stock is now trading above the volatile price range of $11.55 to $14.63 in the past one-month time frame.

In the last 30 days, the company witnessed three positive estimate revisions and the Zacks Consensus Estimate also moved higher over the same time frame, suggesting that more solid trading could be ahead for Ashford Hospitality Prime. So make sure to keep an eye on this stock going forward to see if this recent jump can turn into more strength down the road.
