Current thesis
The post-earnings bull case improved because Q1 delivered record first-quarter revenues, strong advisory and financing growth, continued market-share wins in healthcare and financial services, and another step-up in capital return. The deterministic prior also shifted positive, which fits the idea that the quarter materially improved near-term earnings power even if the market reaction was negative.
