By buying an index fund, investors can approximate the average market return. But many of us dare to dream of bigger returns, and build a portfolio ourselves. Just take a look at Anhui Truchum Advanced Materials and Technology Co., Ltd. (SZSE:002171), which is up 65%, over three years, soundly beating the market return of 32% (not including dividends). On the other hand, the returns haven't been quite so good recently, with shareholders up just 6.9% , including dividends .
After a strong gain in the past week, it's worth seeing if longer term returns have been driven by improving fundamentals.
View our latest analysis for Anhui Truchum Advanced Materials and Technology
While markets are a powerful pricing mechanism, share prices reflect investor sentiment, not just underlying business performance. One imperfect but simple way to consider how the market perception of a company has shifted is to compare the change in the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price movement.
Anhui Truchum Advanced Materials and Technology was able to grow its EPS at 8.2% per year over three years, sending the share price higher. This EPS growth is lower than the 18% average annual increase in the share price. So it's fair to assume the market has a higher opinion of the business than it did three years ago. It's not unusual to see the market 're-rate' a stock, after a few years of growth.

What About Dividends?
As well as measuring the share price return, investors should also consider the total shareholder return (TSR). The TSR is a return calculation that accounts for the value of cash dividends (assuming that any dividend received was reinvested) and the calculated value of any discounted capital raisings and spin-offs. It's fair to say that the TSR gives a more complete picture for stocks that pay a dividend. As it happens, Anhui Truchum Advanced Materials and Technology's TSR for the last 3 years was 74%, which exceeds the share price return mentioned earlier. The dividends paid by the company have thusly boosted the total shareholder return.
A Different Perspective
It's good to see that Anhui Truchum Advanced Materials and Technology has rewarded shareholders with a total shareholder return of 6.9% in the last twelve months. That's including the dividend. Since the one-year TSR is better than the five-year TSR (the latter coming in at 5% per year), it would seem that the stock's performance has improved in recent times. In the best case scenario, this may hint at some real business momentum, implying that now could be a great time to delve deeper. I find it very interesting to look at share price over the long term as a proxy for business performance. But to truly gain insight, we need to consider other information, too.

通過購買指數基金,投資者可以接近平均市場回報。但我們中的許多人都敢於夢想更高的回報,並自己建立投資組合。只要看一看安徽特魯庫姆先進材料技術有限公司。(上證所:002171),三年來上漲了65%,遠遠超過了32%的市場回報率(不包括股息)。另一方面,最近的回報率並不是很好,包括股息在內,股東的回報率僅為6.9%。
在過去一週的強勁上漲之後,長期回報是否受到基本面改善的推動值得關注。
查看我們對安徽Truchum先進材料和技術的最新分析
雖然市場是一種強大的定價機制,但股價反映的是投資者情緒,而不僅僅是潛在的企業表現。一種不完美但簡單的方法來考慮市場對一家公司的看法是如何改變的,那就是將每股收益(EPS)的變化與股價走勢進行比較。
安徽Truchum先進材料和技術能夠在三年內以每年8.2%的速度增長每股收益,推動其股價走高。這一每股收益增幅低於股價年均18%的增幅。因此,可以公平地認為,市場對這項業務的看法比三年前更高。在經歷了幾年的增長後,市場對一隻股票進行重新評級的情況並不少見。

那股息呢?
除了衡量股價回報外,投資者還應考慮總股東回報(TSR)。TSR是一種回報計算,計入了現金股息的價值(假設收到的任何股息都進行了再投資),以及任何貼現融資和剝離的計算價值。公平地説,TSR為支付股息的股票提供了更完整的圖景。碰巧的是,安徽Truchum先進材料科技最近3年的TSR為74%,超過了前面提到的股價回報。該公司支付的股息因此提振了總計股東回報。
不同的視角
很高興看到安徽Truchum先進材料科技在過去的12個月裏以6.9%的總股東回報回報了股東。這還包括股息。由於一年期的TSR好於五年期的TSR(後者的年收益率為5%),看起來該股的表現在最近有所改善。在最好的情況下,這可能暗示着一些真正的商業勢頭,意味着現在可能是深入研究的好時機。我發現,把股價作為衡量企業業績的長期指標是非常有趣的。但為了真正獲得洞察力,我們還需要考慮其他信息。為此,您應該瞭解3個警示標誌我們已經發現了安徽Truchum先進材料和技術(包括1個不容忽視的)。
當然了,如果你把目光投向別處,你可能會發現這是一筆很棒的投資。所以讓我們來看看這個免費我們預計收益將會增長的公司名單。
