The Phoenix Companies (PNX) Jumps: Stock Rises 5% - Tale of the Tape

The Phoenix Companies Inc. ( PNX ) was a big mover last session, as the company saw its shares rise 5% on the day. The move came on solid volume too with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This breaks the recent trend of the company, as the stock is now trading above the volatile price range of $53.13 to $57.20 since Oct 7.

The company has seen no estimate revision over the past 30 days and the Zacks Consensus Estimate has not been in a trend either. Friday's jump is encouraging though, so make sure to keep a close watch on this firm in the near future.
