Directional return response
Weakly-informative prior — the published Edmans-Garcia-Norli -0.5% elimination effect is folded in only weakly, so the WC data dominates. do(win) / do(loss) / do(elimination) all come out ~0: no reliable directional edge. Consistent with Gatto (2026), who finds no day-after return effect in liquid markets. Reported as a distribution.Win~0
