Zacks Zacks Investment Research

Alliance Entertainment Holding Corporation (AENT - Free Report) shares soared 11.6% in the last trading session to close at $7.71. The move was backed by solid volume with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This compares to the stock's 13.7% loss over the past four weeks.

AENT shares are benefitting from its strategic position as a vital link between major entertainment content manufacturers and top-tier retail partners, operating across multiple channels including wholesale distribution, direct-to-consumer e-commerce and exclusive content partnerships.

This company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.31 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +63.2%. Revenues are expected to be $402.16 million, up 2.2% from the year-ago quarter.

Earnings and revenue growth expectations certainly give a good sense of the potential strength in a stock, but empirical research shows that trends in earnings estimate revisions are strongly correlated with near-term stock price movements.

For Alliance Entertainment Holding Corporation, the consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days. And a stock's price usually doesn't keep moving higher in the absence of any trend in earnings estimate revisions. So, make sure to keep an eye on AENT going forward to see if this recent jump can turn into more strength down the road.

One other stock in the same industry, Tencent Music Entertainment Group Sponsored ADR (TME - Free Report) , finished the last trading session 1.4% lower at $16.55.
