VRT · PEAD ↑ 91

Print-day reaction was a muted +0.4% versus the prior close, as the stock largely absorbed the beat within the session. The overnight gap into T+1 open added +2.5%, signalling that after-hours participants continued to reprice the earnings surprise upward. Over the following two trading days, price drifted an additional +0.8%, sustaining the post-gap move without meaningful giveback. Cumulative abnormal return of +7.6% versus SPY.US places this firmly in PEAD long territory; the documented drift pattern holds through 2026-07-27.
