PPG Return Day-1 residual (stock − beta × S&P 500) -1.5% MEDIUM
PPG Return 5-day cumulative residual -2.5% (FADE) Likely a modest EPS beat aided by a fading FX tailwind and price, but the swing factor is guidance: a reaffirm (not a raise) of $7.70-$8.10 despite management's own 'upside' callouts repeats the post-Q1 pattern (stock fell ~2.8% on a beat). With the stock back near February highs (~$118.50, +14% YTD) and having outrun peers off the March low, the bar is high. Out-period math is unfavorable — a flat FY reaffirm plus mid-single-digit COGS inflation risk implies limited H2 upside, so estimates drift lower even after a beat, driving a day-1 dip and continued fade over the week absent a clean guidance raise.
