You may be right, but I've seen many, many stocks trade up 10-30 points in after hours trading immediately after a favorable earnings report. The fact that AMGN only traded a few points higher, then reversed is an implication to me that is was not viewed very strongly. Just my opinion.

Good luck!

P.S. Also note that while the full year earnings were up 39% over the previous year, the 4th quarter earnings were only up 34% over the previous year. This slowing of earnings growth may not be favorably received for a stock with a PE of ~37.
