The full TMO sympathy picture is a member tool — and it goes far beyond this table:
  • the 0–100 sympathy score for each pair (direction consistency + amplification + correlation, discounted for small samples)
  • each peer's live ATM straddle with an honest 1-day breakeven — the move it must beat by the reaction-day close
  • historical beat rates from real option prices: how often past TMO reports beat that same hurdle
  • direction splits, gap-vs-peak timing, and an event-by-event history for every pair
  • the week's best pairs delivered as P0/P1/P2 sympathy picks
No other platform measures earnings sympathy this way.

Why trade the peer instead of TMO itself?

Options on TMO are expensive into the print — the expected move is priced in, and implied volatility collapses the moment results land. SNOW has no event that day: its options are priced for a normal session, and measured across our pairs the median change in peer IV through a reporter's print is roughly zero. The sympathy trade turns TMO's report into a position with a normal-day hurdle instead of an event-premium hurdle. New to the concept?

Frequently asked questions

Which stocks move when TMO reports earnings?

Measured over up to ten years of TMO's earnings days, the strongest sympathy peer is SNOW: same direction as TMO's reaction in 71% of 24 tracked reports, median same-day move ±2.8%.

Are stocks like TMO worth watching on its earnings day?

That is exactly what a sympathy play is: TMO's report reprices companies with the same customers and economics, so 'stocks like TMO' often move the same day — without an earnings event of their own. The size is usually smaller than TMO's own move (SNOW: ±2.8% vs a normal day ×1.9), but the peer's options carry no event premium, so there is no IV crush to pay.

Is SNOW correlated with TMO?

On TMO's earnings days specifically, yes, historically: 71% same-direction over 24 events after excluding SNOW's own earnings window and heavy market days. General day-to-day correlation is a different (weaker) question — the earnings-day link is the tradeable one.

What is a sympathy stock?

A sympathy stock moves on another company's news rather than its own — here, SNOW reacting to TMO's earnings. EarningsWatcher measures these relationships event by event and gates them for sample size, direction consistency and amplification; see the full guide to sympathy plays.
