Why do shares drop on good earnings ?

Recommended Posts

I am following Bohoo and ther shares have been climbing what I want to know is why do the shares drop when the company has just posted double growth over the year profits beat the predicted forecast

Can any one explain this .is it people taking profit now ? You would think that they would go up not down

When the company raised its forecast during the year the shares rose but yet when the actual figures come out and are better than expected they drop

Very confusing .

I am new to this and any info would help

I have also seen this happen with other companies I watch

 

Thanks Jay

Consider the different reasons the share might be held, from the day trader simply holding a momentum move or the longer term investor holding for year on year growth.

With the monumental amout of information available including ongoing investment analysis provided by the broker research and other specialised research houses, there is more than enough current information about companies earnings and expected earnings.

When theses numbers are confirmed in line with a consensus of research there are no surprises and the shorter term trader investor would be looking to take profits and look for other opportunities. This is shown in the day to day movements.

For the longer term holder, the day to day movements are just noise and often disregarded.

The longer term holder is interested in the forward looking commentary from the compaies reporting, should this be positive generally the share price will recover quickly from the short term profit takers as the dip offers a buying opportunity. The longer term ( weekly) trend will remain in tact. However at times forward commentary from the company report can have an immediate negative effect on share prices and price trends can change. The first to sell may be the institutional end of the market as they will sell into strength to get the liquidity required for the volume to be liquidated.
Define where you fit in to this equation and the sell off on the company reporting may present an opportunity increase your position or take profits.

    • Solana ($SOL) is facing a challenging period in the market, with its price dropping to $130.56 USD. Here’s a closer look at what’s happening and what might be next for SOL. Recent Price Decline 15.17% Drop in a Month: Over the past month, Solana coin has fallen by 15.17%. This decline reflects the broader market’s pressure on the cryptocurrency. 8.5% Weekly Fall: Just this week, Solana saw an 8.5% drop, a sign that bears are firmly in control. Despite attempts to maintain a bullish outlook, the market seems to have different plans. Critical Support Levels Breakdown of $134 Support: Recently, SOL broke through the $134 support level, raising concerns that further declines could be on the way. Key Support at $122: The $122 level is now under the spotlight. This price point has been tested six times, and many whales view it as crucial. A break below this could push SOL towards $90. But if this support holds, it might set the stage for a bullish turnaround. $100 Support: While the $100 support level is still a bit distant, it’s essential to watch if the current bearish momentum continues. Revisiting this level could spell trouble for Solana. Changing Market Sentiment Shift to Bearish: The overall sentiment around Solana is slowly turning bearish. Since March, SOL has struggled to make new highs, and the current price action suggests that new lows could be coming. Potential Bullish Outcome: However, some analysts believe that if Solana manages to stay above $122 throughout 2024 and 2025, it could be incredibly bullish for the future, possibly leading to significant gains in 2025. Upcoming Breakpoint Event Historical Price Surges: There’s a potential catalyst on the horizon. Historically, Solana has seen price surges two weeks before its annual Breakpoint event. In previous years, SOL surged by 35% in 2021 and 2022, and by 60% in 2023. 2024 Event: With 16 days left until the 2024 Breakpoint event, could we see another rally? Only time will tell. The Importance of $122 Support As Solana approaches the $122 support level, all eyes are on whether it will hold. A break below could lead to further declines, while maintaining this support could bring back some bullish momentum. As always, stay informed, and remember the old adage in crypto: "buy the rumor, sell the news." Keep watching the charts as we near the 2024 Breakpoint event.  
    • One of the prominent cryptocurrency exchange, has maintained its commitment to user security through its Protection Fund.

The exchange ability to continues to maintain a reserve ratio well above 150%, indicating a strong buffer against potential risks. The fund's value has shown correlation with Bitcoin's price movements, demonstrating its responsiveness to market conditions.

The Protection Fund's portfolio includes high-liquidity cryptocurrencies such as BTC, USDT, and USDC, which contributes to its stability and liquidity.

Bitget's approach of self-funding and internally managing the Protection Fund allows for potentially quicker response times in critical situations, as it operates independently of external regulations and approvals. As the cryptocurrency market continues to evolve, the performance and management of such security measures will likely remain a point of interest for both users and industry observers.
