During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 2.33% from a day low at $8.79 to a day high of $8.99.

Volume fell on the last day by -432 thousand shares and in total, 2 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $19.26 million. You should take into consideration that falling volume on higher prices causes divergence and may be an early warning about possible changes over the next couple of days.

The stock lies in the middle of a very wide and falling trend in the short term and further fall within the trend is signaled. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to fall -9.13% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $6.80 and $8.63 at the end of this 3-month period. Do note, that if the stock price manages to stay at current levels or higher, our prediction target will start to change positively over the next few days as the conditions for the current predictions will be broken.
