Shares trades in connection with earnings announcements: ANDV. After earnings delivered a significant upside surprise, shares declined rapidly, despite a positive surprise on both earnings and sales. I exited for a loss, pondering the great truth of our world: In the markets, cause and effect are nonlinear.
Note that I am changing the headline style to list the market symbol of the shares traded.
| sym | entry | exit | result ($) | result (%) | entry date | exit date |
| ANDV | 110.67 | 105.04 | -5.63 | -5.1% | 11/8 | 11/9 |
