Weakness seen in Splunk (SPLK): Stock Plunges 16.4% - Tale of the Tape


Splunk, Inc. SPLK saw a big move in the last trading session, as the company's shares fell by over 16% on the day. The move came on pretty good 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 below the volatile price range of $43.60 to $54.87 in the past one-month time frame.

The software solutions provider has not seen any estimate revision over the past month, and the current year earnings consensus hasn't been in a trend either. This recent price action is discouraging, so make sure to keep a close watch on this firm in the near future, especially on earnings estimates following the recent slump.

SPLK currently holds a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).

Investors interested in the Internet Software industry may consider better-ranked stocks like Cvent, Inc. CVT, Support.com, Inc. SPRT and TeleCommunication Systems Inc. TSYS, each carrying a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
