The online publication said Thomson Reuters shares have rallied 9.76 per cent in the past 52 weeks. They registered a one-year high of $42.64 on 15 April 2015 and a one-year low of $34.88 on 16 October 2014. The 50-day moving average is $40.33 and the 200-day moving average is $40.02.

Amid volatile trading on Friday, the shares closed down 0.48 points or 1.22 per cent at $38.90.
