The market reacts to results vs expectations, not the absolute numbers. A stock can report 20% profit growth but fall if market expected 30%. Always check analyst consensus estimates before results.

Most experienced traders avoid holding large positions into results due to binary risk. Post-result, the trend often continues for 5-10 days — trade the reaction, not the anticipation.
