A beat doesn't guarantee a rally, and a miss doesn't guarantee a drop, expectations already priced in can flip the reaction.
Beat/miss alone doesn't say how big, a company that beats by 0.1% every quarter behaves very differently from one that swings ±20%.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| EPS | -171.8% | -13.2% | +320.9% | -974.8% |
| Revenue | -12.7% | -10.2% | +7.7% | -42.3% |
