Kingsoft Cloud Holdings Limited Sponsored ADR KC shares soared 20.5% in the last trading session to close at $15.14. The move was backed by solid volume with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This compares to the stock's 10.8% gain over the past four weeks.
Kingsoft Cloud is benefiting from its strong integration with the Xiaomi and Kingsoft ecosystems, driving AI-powered cloud services expansion, enhanced enterprise solutions, and impressive AI revenue growth, positioning it as a leader in the cloud industry.
This company is expected to post quarterly loss of $0.11 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +21.4%. Revenues are expected to be $269.59 million, up 11.1% 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 Kingsoft Cloud, 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.
