By the end of the day, both sides had retired from the immediate battle area. The Japanese sent ''Zuikaku'' back for a few days, even though her aircraft complement was badly depleted, but they had already called off their Port Moresby amphibious operation and withdrew the carrier on May 11. At about the same time ''Yorktown'' was recalled to Pearl Harbor, where she would receive enough repairs to make her battle-ready in time for her vital role in the [[Battle of Midway]] in early June.
