Science Applications (SAIC) in Focus: Stock Up 6% in Session

Science Applications International Corporation SAIC was a big mover last session, as the company saw its shares rise 6% on the day. Shares gained after the company announced better-than-expected earnings in the second quarter of fiscal 2017. The news led to far more shares changing hands than in a normal session resulting in solid volume. This continues the recent uptrend for the company as the stock is now up 14.6% since Aug 16.

None of the estimates for this stock were revised over the past seven days. The Zacks Consensus Estimate also remained unchanged over the same time frame. Yesterday’s price action is encouraging though, so make sure to keep a close watch on this firm in the near future.

Science Applications International currently carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).
