RMED - Zovio (ZVO) Stock Soars 90% Ahead of Oct. 25 Dissolution Vote
InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading Tips
Zovio (NASDAQ:ZVO) stock is rocketing higher on Tuesday as investors prepare for an incredibly important vote next week!
Zovio will hold a shareholder meeting on Oct. 25 that will literally decide the future of the former education services company. The only vote available to shareholders will be if the company should move forward with dissolution plans.
Zovio’s main focus used to be its education services. However, the company divested that part of its business back in July. Following that, the company also revealed plans to sell Fullstack Academy , which is its largest remaining business.
With ZVO quickly exiting the education business, a dissolution makes sense. The company filed its dissolution plans with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in late September. It then set a date for the shareholder meeting earlier this month.
Heavy Trading Pushes ZVO Stock Higher
Despite seeking dissolution, traders are pumping up shares of the company’s stock today. As of this writing, some 106 million shares of ZVO stock have changed hands. That’s a massive leap over its daily average trading volume of about 1.8 million shares.
AVO stock is up 90.3% as of Tuesday morning. Even so, the stock is still down 80.4% since the start of the year.
