Advance Auto Parts (AAP) Looks Good: Stock Adds 8.2% in Session

In this article:

Advance Auto Parts, Inc. AAP was a big mover last session, as the company saw its shares rise more than 8% on the day. The move came on solid volume too with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This reverses the recent trend for the company—as the stock is now down 2.6% in the past one-month time frame.

The move came after the company reported better-than-expected fourth-quarter 2017 results.

The company has seen a mixed track record when it comes to estimate revision of one increase and two decreases over the past few weeks, while the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the current quarter remained unchanged. The recent price action is encouraging though, so make sure to keep a close watch on this firm in the near future.

Advance Auto Parts currently has a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) while its Earnings ESP is negative.
