Yamana Gold (AUY) Catches Eye: Stock Moves 7.5% Higher

Yamana Gold, Inc. AUY was a big mover last session, as its shares rose almost 8% on the day. The upside was driven by a rebound in the gold market. This also led to far more shares changing hands than in a normal session.

Over the last 30 days, the company witnessed one positive and one negative estimate revision while the Zacks Consensus Estimate remained unchanged. Friday’s price action is encouraging though, so make sure to keep a close watch on this firm in the near future.
