In the 18 years i've been at GOOG, what direction the stock moves post-earnings is always random, and then talking heads try to post-facto rationalize it.

I've seen Google blow away earnings and all expectations and be down 10%, and completely miss expectations and pop up 5%.

Everyone has an explanation for this but a while ago there was this online game someone made which would give you some metric about some public stock and then you had to guess to buy / sell. It's not that straightforward.

Here, GOOG was $144.99 on Jan 18 and $144.50 on Jan 30 and this is supposed to be some dramatic shift in things? Bullshit.
