This may be a silly question, but, why should he?

If one is a long term stock holder, what difference does the short term fluctuation make in one's portfolio? I really don't care if Intel is at 50 or 80 before, during, or after earnings come out. I do care how the company fares years from now, and by then the numbers and any guidance that went with them will have been history.

If one is a short term stock holder, day-trader, etc. why should he care one whit?

At best (if he's accurate) he can smooth the stock graph, at worst, he could be accused of manipulating things (if something goes wrong).
