There are exceptions, of course ( $GEV ). For the most part, though, it appears the market has properly discounted favorable results. So, once those results come out, so too do the sellers. For this earnings season, it may make more sense to take profits on the high-fliers ahead of the reports rather than holding through the announcements.
