Two companies just reported stinker quarters and their stocks are sliding — short the post-earnings drift on AST SpaceMobile and ResMed
Two mid-cap companies just reported disappointing quarterly results with weak revenue and bleak future outlooks, and their stocks are getting punished. When companies miss on both the top and bottom line while also cutting guidance, the selling often continues for days as analysts revise their models downward.
Idea
AST SpaceMobile missed revenue estimates and posted a wider loss, while ResMed fell 7% on a soft outlook for the coming year. When companies deliver bad earnings surprises — especially both a current miss AND a cut to future expectations — institutional investors often need days or weeks to fully trim positions, creating sustained downward drift. Both stocks are mid-caps where the selling pressure from forced repositioning can linger longer than in large-caps that already have deep buyer bases.
