CRSP value-weighted index return by quartile of aggregate earnings change, 1970 to 2000. Every regression specification in the paper is negative, with slopes from minus 3.33 to minus 10.10 and t statistics from minus 2.04 to minus 3.49. Aggregate earnings explain 4% to 8% of quarterly market returns, with the sign inverted from intuition.

At the single stock level a positive earnings surprise predicts a positive return. Aggregate it across the market and the sign flips: quarters with the worst aggregate earnings growth saw the index return about 7%, against about 1% in the best.
