The analysis
Earnings versus expectations is what actually re-rates a stock; the surprise matters more than the absolute number.
Because the driver here is macro rather than company-specific, the read-through is to index-level positioning rather than to any single name — correlations tend to rise when the whole market faces the same signal.
