Shares of Lennar Corp. rose in premarket trading Tuesday, a day after the homebuilder posted a mixed second-quarter report, with revenue topping analysts' expectations but profit, new orders, and average sale price falling short.

The shares at on track for their best day since April, but are still struggling with overhead pressure at the $115 level despite pacing for their third gain in the last four sessions. LEN carries a 13.4% year-to-date deficit, shed 24.6% in the last 12 months, and isn't too far off its April 9, 52-week low of $98.42.
