Star Bulk Carriers Corp. (NASDAQ:SBLK) was a big mover last session, as the company saw its shares rise over 11% on the day. The move came on solid 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 above the volatile price range of $9.57 to $10.63 in the past one-month time frame.
