Earnings "beats" are a pet peeve of mine. I posted this on X
earlier today:
The 'earnings beat' statistics, as in 86% of companies have
beat so far this quarter are contrived by people selling stocks.
It's essentially meaningless but you hear it constantly. If a
company comes in overvalued and then beats a target they set are
they now undervalued? Answer: the "beat" doesn't help you determine
that in any way. It's a sales tactic.

Cramer even has a strategy / acronym for playing the "earnings
beat" game and says companies are moronic if they don't follow it.
UPOD - always Under Promise and Over Deliver.
It's kind of amazing to me that the average beat rate per
cycle isn't more like 98%. I mean, they set their own damn
targets!
