If the decline was expected, that had already affected the stock price. If you look ONLY at what happens on the day that expectation is finally official, in writing, then yes it’s counterintuitive. But it makes perfect sense that if a huge decline was already built into the price, then that price would rise a little when it’s found out that the decline wasn’t as bad as expected.
So, 2+2= whatever the hype says it is. Got it.
Thats how its supposed to work.
That is absolutely not how it actually is working.
