Alcobra (ADHD) Worth Watching: Stock Moves 5.1% Higher

Alcobra Ltd. ADHD was a big mover last session with its shares rising over 5% on the day. The move came on solid volume too with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This reverses the recent downtrend for the company as the stock has lost nearly 15% in the past one-month time frame.
 
This biopharmaceutical company has seen no estimate revision in the last 60 days. Meanwhile, the Zacks Consensus Estimate has moved higher over the same period. This implies solid trading potential for the company. So make sure to keep an eye on this stock going forward to see if yesterday's rally can turn into more strength down the road.

Alcobra currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) while its Earnings ESP is positive.

Investors interested in the Med-Drugs industry may consider better-ranked stocks like Mallinckrodt plc MNK, Lannett Company, Inc. LCI and Endo International plc ENDP. While Mallinckrodt and Lannett Company carry a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), Endo International bears a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).
