Teradyne delivered a strong quarter, beating earnings expectations and posting solid revenue growth. Despite that, the stock pulled back after the report. Since then, TER has formed a higher low and appears to be breaking out of a bull flag pattern today.
I initiated a full position yesterday when the stock reclaimed its 50-day moving average, anticipating a move above the upper downtrend line. That breakout occurred today. My stop is set just below the nearest daily low at 309.41, and if the stock continues higher, I plan to use a trailing stop to manage the position.
Earnings Summary
Teradyne beat expectations.
Reported Tuesday, April 28, 2026, at 4:30 PM ET
