Hello, I was going to invest in a stock today before a earnings call that may be a beat tonight.

I'm curious, I was told the stock goes up into earnings and then down. How fast is that process? Say on Thursday is it like a instant sell when the market opens or should I hold that stock until Thursday evening?

Thank you!
