Most investors are surprisingly low detail. They are looking for indications of confidence in comparison to competitors, as opposed to knowing a lot about the specific companies business. If company A in sector Z pays out a load of executive bonuses, or headhunts a new CEO at a higher rate than companies B, C & D, then the stock will usually rise at such news, unless there is some other very public news to cancel that out.
