Print-day reaction was +31.3% versus the prior close — a sharp gap-and-hold on the earnings beat, carrying the stock from $143.71 to $188.73 in a single session. The overnight gap into T+1 gave back a modest -1.7%, a negligible fade relative to the scale of the initial move. Over the following two trading days (T+1 close through T+3 close), the drift added another -0.1%, effectively flat as the stock consolidated near the new range. Cumulative abnormal return of +38.5% versus SPY.US puts this firmly in PEAD long territory; the documented drift pattern supports holding the read through 2026-08-04.
