the MSFT trading is amusing
earnings come out, look very strong but the stock dives after the bell. Down 5% from what I could see.
then at around 6 pm it goes to flat.
now it's up 5% premarket.
So a 10% swing between around 5pm last night and 8AM this morning. In a multi-trillion $ market cap stock. HUGE amounts of money there.
And I do think there's some chance it was a bear raid after earnings...one of the big tells you are in a bear market is if a stock falls even after good earnings. When that happens it's pretty scary. So maybe some loose coalition hit that stock hard to try to give that impression. I dunno. Just making stuff up.
