Generally speaking long term investing is the way to go. But that doesn't mean long term investors can avoid big losses. For example, after five long years the Wangsu Science & Technology Co.,Ltd. (SZSE:300017) share price is a whole 62% lower. That is extremely sub-optimal, to say the least. Furthermore, it's down 15% in about a quarter. That's not much fun for holders. However, one could argue that the price has been influenced by the general market, which is down 12% in the same timeframe.
Since Wangsu Science & TechnologyLtd has shed CN¥658m from its value in the past 7 days, let's see if the longer term decline has been driven by the business' economics.

To quote Buffett, 'Ships will sail around the world but the Flat Earth Society will flourish. There will continue to be wide discrepancies between price and value in the marketplace...' One way to examine how market sentiment has changed over time is to look at the interaction between a company's share price and its earnings per share (EPS).
During the five years over which the share price declined, Wangsu Science & TechnologyLtd's earnings per share (EPS) dropped by 32% each year. This fall in the EPS is worse than the 18% compound annual share price fall. The relatively muted share price reaction might be because the market expects the business to turn around. With a P/E ratio of 69.33, it's fair to say the market sees a brighter future for the business.

A Different Perspective
We regret to report that Wangsu Science & TechnologyLtd shareholders are down 19% for the year (even including dividends). Unfortunately, that's worse than the broader market decline of 16%. Having said that, it's inevitable that some stocks will be oversold in a falling market. The key is to keep your eyes on the fundamental developments. Unfortunately, last year's performance may indicate unresolved challenges, given that it was worse than the annualised loss of 10% over the last half decade. Generally speaking long term share price weakness can be a bad sign, though contrarian investors might want to research the stock in hope of a turnaround. 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.

一般来说,长期投资是一条可行的道路。但这并不意味着长期投资者可以避免巨额亏损。例如,在漫长的五年之后,望苏科技股份有限公司(SZSE:300017)股价整体下跌62%。至少可以说,这是非常不理想的。此外,它在大约四分之一的时间里下跌了15%。对于持有者来说,这并不是什么乐趣。然而,有人可能会辩称,价格受到了大盘的影响,大盘在同一时间段内下跌了12%。
由于网苏科技股份有限公司在过去7天里市值缩水6.58亿元人民币,让我们看看长期下跌是否受到了企业经济的推动。

用巴菲特的话说,“船只将在世界各地航行,但平坦的地球协会将蓬勃发展。市场上的价格和价值之间将继续存在巨大的差异……”考察市场情绪如何随时间变化的一种方法是观察一家公司的股价和每股收益(EPS)之间的相互作用。
在股价下跌的五年中,旺苏科技股份有限公司的每股收益(EPS)每年下降32%。每股收益的这一跌幅比18%的复合年度股价跌幅还要糟糕。股价反应相对平淡,可能是因为市场预计该公司会扭亏为盈。在市盈率为69.33倍的情况下,公平地说,市场认为该业务的前景更加光明。

不同的视角
我们遗憾地报告,旺苏科技有限公司的股东今年以来下降了19%(即使包括股息)。不幸的是,这比大盘16%的跌幅还要糟糕。话虽如此,在下跌的市场中,一些股票不可避免地会被超卖。关键是要密切关注基本面的发展。不幸的是,去年的表现可能预示着尚未解决的挑战,因为它比过去五年10%的年化损失更糟糕。一般来说,股价长期疲软可能是一个坏信号,尽管反向投资者可能会希望研究这只股票,希望它能好转。我发现,把股价作为衡量企业业绩的长期指标是非常有趣的。但为了真正获得洞察力,我们还需要考虑其他信息。一个恰当的例子:我们发现了王素科技有限公司的2个警示标志你应该意识到。
