Radius Health, Inc. ( RDUS ) was a big mover last session with its shares rising roughly 7% on the day. The upside was owing to the company's announcement of positive top line data for its osteoporotic fracture candidate from the first six months of the ACTIVExtend trial and 25-month combined data from ACTIVE and ACTIVExtend. This development led to far more shares changing hands yesterday than in a normal session. The move breaks the recent trend of the company as the stock is now trading above the past one month's volatile price range of $46.63 to $49.43.
This biopharmaceutical company has seen no estimate revision in the last 30 days. The Zacks Consensus Estimate has also remained unchanged over the same period. Yesterday's rally is encouraging though, so make sure to keep a close watch on this firm in the near future.
Radius Health currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) while its Earnings ESP is 0.00%.
A better-ranked stock in the Med-Drugs industry is Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc. ( VRX ) with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
