How Accuride (ACW) Stock Stands Out in a Strong Industry - Tale of the Tape

One
stock that might be an intriguing choice for investors right now is
Accuride Corp. (ACW). This is because this
security in the Auto parts industry is seeing solid earnings
estimate revision activity, and is in great company from a Zacks
Industry Rank perspective.
This is important because, often times, a rising tide will lift all
boats in an industry, as there can be broad trends taking place in
a segment that are boosting securities across the board. This is
arguably taking place in the Auto parts industry as it currently
has a Zacks Industry Rank of 35 out of more than 250 industries,
suggesting it is well-positioned from this perspective, especially
when compared to other segments out there.
Meanwhile, Accuride is actually looking pretty good on its own too.
The firm has seen solid earnings estimate revision activity over
the past month, suggesting analysts are becoming a bit more bullish
on the firm’s prospects in both the short and long term.
In fact, over the past month, current quarter loss estimates have
narrowed to a loss of 14 cents per share from a loss of 15 cents,
while current year loss estimates have moved down to 34 cents per
share from 38 cents. The company currently holds a Zacks Rank #3
(Hold), which is also a favourable signal.
So, if you are looking for a decent pick in a strong industry,
consider Accuride. Not only is its industry currently in the top
third, but it is seeing solid estimate revisions as of late,
suggesting it could be a very interesting choice for investors
seeking a name in this great industry segment.
