Why beating earnings no longer matters in this market
| When Winning Is Losing | By Prof. Jeffrey Bierman, CMT
Alcoa crushed estimates by 50% yesterday. | The stock reported $1.26 against an 85 cent estimate. Wall Street's response was to destroy it by $7 in a single session. | I have traded for 39 years. This is what a market top looks like. | Companies are delivering results that should send stocks higher. The market is punishing them anyway. The disconnect between performance and price action is the clearest warning sign I can give you. | This pattern is playing out across every sector. Intel. Alcoa. SLB. The names change but the outcome stays the same. | Here is why your long positions are more vulnerable than you realize. | | | I helped build the machines that are taking your money. | At ThinkorSwim, I was part of the team that developed the algo logic Wall Street still uses today. I watched it evolve from clunky code into something that strikes faster than any human can react. | Nearly 90% of all trades are placed by machines now. You're not losing because you're wrong. You're losing because you're slow. | I built the Genesis Cog to see their moves before they hit the tape. It caught Micron's 48.5% run and Boeing's 28% collapse while analysts were still guessing. | 👉 Apply here to see how it works. | |
