Will the stock plummet by 20% after hours if the revenue falls short of market expectations? There is a heavy gambling mentality in stock trading today 🙈🙈.

Macdonell J : it's getting harder for the stock price to move even tesla beats the market. MSFT beat the market by 20%, yet the stock price tanked by 6% at one point. It was only later rescued by the future guidance announced during the earnings call. Their EPS was $2.48 whereas consensus was $2.32, a 6.9% beat. However, the Earnings Whisper thought the consensus was $2.29, aiming for a 8.3% beat. So MSFT missed the growth target in that sense.
We can look at Tesla's Earnings Whisper at $2.71 versus the consensus at $2.36, which is 14.8% beat. However, EW website stated as EW at $2.71 vs consensus at $2.26, which is a 19.9% beat. If Tesla can exceed the 19.9% growth, then the market would react positively. If not, the consolation would be their future guidance where Elon might announce their Cybertruck production timeline, 1.4mil delivery target, or Austin/Berlin gigafactories production schedules.
