This analysis focuses on the company’s stock price reaction during the last 12 earnings announcements. Moreover, also reporting the reactions only to the earnings announcement in which the company has reported EPS higher than expected or in which it has reported EPS lower than expected.
If an event has occurred often does not mean that repetition is guaranteed in the future.
This analysis could be useful for the following reasons:
- Understand if it is a company that often beats analysts’ expectations and see how the market reacts accordingly.
- Understanding if when the company reacts with a positive opening then closes the day at an even higher price or if it reverses the direction and closes at a lower price (and viceversa).
- Have an idea of how much the stock price goes up on average when it reacts positively and how much the stock price goes down when it reacts negatively.
- Identify those stocks with the best risk-return ratio, ie stocks that have average positive reactions 2 or 3 times greater than average negative reactions.
- If you are a day trader you may find interesting those stocks that show a historically high volatility during these days.
- Know how the price of the stock reacts within 5 or 20 days after the publication of the quarterly report.
