Have you heard of a stock going up after missing the earnings estimate?

BXS missed its estimate yesterday and is up 4% today. Granted it's an up day for the market overall, but BXS is up way more than its peers. That has to be pretty rare?

About the only time I've seen it happen is when a company misses on the bottom line estimate but beats it on the top line (revenue) estimate. Or maybe when the company simultaneously announces an increase in its dividend.

sometimes a miss in earnings can signal a change in the company's board or executive level. if investors see a change as a positive, they'll jump in.

If they adjusted forward guidance up a lot, that would make sense.

THF already posted but 90% of the time when a stock bounces following earnings misses, its because of an increase to forward guidance (or initiating forward guidance above market expectations).
BXS is rallying from a much larger than expected share buy-back.

It happened last week with YUM. Missed on top and bottom but stock was up modestly the next day.

Really interesting stuff I've never really paid attention to. Clearly it didn't work for IBM. 
This is what makes Monday-Fridays great. I like my job, but it's still work. The market is great workday entertainment. You get news early in the morning, and in the final hours of the workday after the market closes.

Bounced around a bit yesterday and closed about even. Up another 2.5% today after declaring the same dividend as last quarter.

mcd had horrible earnings but the stock barely moved, because of this reason.
edit- i don't think any changes were announced, but i believe there is speculation

So BXS is up ~15% after missing earnings last week
