If stock prices are volatile than why even look at financial statements?
If stock prices are volatile, then what makes stock prices go up or down?
Many people say to look at the financial history to know if you should invest, but in many cases the stock price is way over priced for what the company is actually worth with respect to their financial statements, book value, earnings per share, etc…
How do you know when to invest in a stock if even financial statements don’t reflect a company’s stock price? I can’t understand how you know when to invest? or when you can truly make a basis that you think the stock price will go up or down?
For example NetSuite just announced strong revenue results and that revenues exceeded estimates. In the same announcement, the CEO also mentioned slower growth in 2008 and then the stock plummeted by 10%.
If the company announces progressive financial results why would the stock price go down? Again, this indicates that the market is always driven by emotion than financial results.
