Candidates, not recommendations

These are systematic candidate signals from a documented academic anomaly. They are not buy or sell recommendations. The Pattern Engine generates the candidates; the decision to act, position sizing, risk management, and portfolio context are entirely the reader's responsibility. Past PEAD spreads have weakened materially since the 1980s and may continue to evolve. Short-side signals carry asymmetric risk including borrow costs and squeeze potential. See the full Lab Read for the complete failure-mode treatment.

FAQ · from the current data

PEAD — live — Q&A

What does the PEAD engine show?

Post-earnings-announcement drift setups from the nightly scan: long and short candidates with the 3-day cumulative abnormal return vs benchmark, the 63-day hold window and ±3% direction thresholds of the Pattern Lab methodology. Methodology: /lab/patterns/pead/.

How often does it run?

Nightly after the US close on trading days, during and after earnings season. Part of the Pattern Engine, the live counterpart of Pattern Lab — five engines on the Signal desk.

Is a signal here a recommendation?

No. Every engine output is a pattern hit in an investment research diary — a watch-list label with its trigger state, never advice. Base rates and the methodology live on the Pattern Lab page.
