It's either a big drop or a big surge. The problem is, normally, even if earnings exceed expectations, the probability of a big drop is much higher, like Micron.Last month, to concentrate holdings, I sold Western Digital and Seagate Technology. Looking at this month's trend, I never expected traditional hard drives to be more impressive than Micron and SanDisk.

I sold Western Digital and Seagate and switched to Micron before its earnings report, and the hard drive stocks ended up rising fifty percent. - **双双2026** (2026-04-29T01:23:46.000Z): Sigh - **四顾 · 2026-04-29T00:18:43.000Z**: Be cautious recently, yesterday's drop was quite significant. - **呼噜噜壮仔 · 2026-04-29T00:15:28.000Z · 👍 2**: Another example is SK Hynix. The first day after the earnings report, it fell slightly, and then two days later, it skyrocketed. Just try to guess why🌚 - **双双2026** (2026-04-29T03:45:41.000Z): It didn't surge; it did go up. I have a 2x long position on SK Hynix. - **呼噜噜壮仔** (2026-04-29T04:08:20.000Z): It rose from 42 to 49, almost touching 50, a gain of over ten points. I also have a 2x long position on SK Hynix.
