Post Earnings Price Action Review

The strategy of purchasing HEI shares when revenue exceeded expectations and holding them for 30 days resulted in a neutral return of 0.00%. Despite avoiding losses, the strategy significantly underperformed the benchmark, which showed an impressive return of 87.89%. The absence of a drawdown highlights the strategy's risk mitigation, yet its inability to capitalize on market gains is evident. The Sharpe ratio stands at 0.00%, indicating no risk-adjusted returns, while the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) also remained flat at 0.00%. This suggests that although the strategy was safe, it failed to generate any substantial returns in comparison to the benchmark.
