AME Return Day-1 residual (stock − beta × S&P 500) +1.5% MEDIUM
AME Return 5-day cumulative residual +0.5% (FADE) Base case is another clean beat-and-raise, but the FY raise is essentially the Q2 beat flowing through (2H guide left conservative/implicitly unchanged), so out-quarter estimates barely rise. With the stock near 52-week highs on a premium multiple and a beat-raise fully priced, the initial pop lacks a strong upward-revision engine. Orders decelerating off the +23% Q1 record (tougher comps, harder EMG/medical 2H) risks a 'quality of print' debate. Absent a needle-moving M&A announcement, the day-1 gain tends to fade back toward flat over the week. LOW
