Very good company. Throw a few bad quarters in there and Wall Street starts to think of it as crap.

Earnings were in line, a penny one way or the other wasnt going to move the stock...more important, there is a phrase "its all in the call". That is, its more important what they say in the conference call leading to future quarters than what happened in the past. Supposedly the inventory levels came down far more than expected, and the company has transitioned better than expected, boding very well for performance a few quarters out.

Boom Boom,

Yes, because in a manic bull market there is no logic to stock
movements. In a bear market, all news, whether good or bad, will be
treated as being bad news.
