Technologies shares following a quarter-over-quarter revenue increase on the financial report release date and holding these shares for 30 days yielded moderate returns. Despite delivering conservative returns, the strategy underperformed the benchmark with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.86%, lagging by 19.69%. The maximum drawdown was 0.00%, indicating low risk, but the Sharpe ratio of 0.45 reflects the conservative nature of the returns.
