CCI Return Day-1 residual (stock − beta × S&P 500) +2.0% MEDIUM
CCI Return 5-day cumulative residual +1.0% (FADE) AFFO beat and a FY26 AFFO/share guide (~$4.59 mid) that already sits well above lagging Street consensus (~$4.43) should spark an initial relief pop off 52-week lows, but the out-period math offers little incremental fuel: the raise was already flagged May 1, organic growth guidance is merely reaffirmed (not upgraded), and the very next day (7/23) brings a binary DISH Chapter 11 discovery/claims hearing with no resolution expected at the print itself. Q1's beat-and-reaffirm only produced a modest, short-lived +1.8% pop before the stock resumed its slide into the DISH bankruptcy overhang, arguing for partial fade of the day-1 reaction over the week as algorithmic buyers book gains and event-risk from the hearing reintroduces two-way volatility.
