To paraphrase Benjamin Graham: Over the short term the market is a voting machine, but over the long term it's a weighing machine. 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 last year Country Garden Services Holdings grew its earnings per share (EPS) by 70%. This EPS growth is significantly lower than the 142% increase in the share price. This indicates that the market is now more optimistic about the stock. The fairly generous P/E ratio of 53.18 also points to this optimism.

A Different Perspective
It's nice to see that Country Garden Services Holdings shareholders have gained 142% over the last year , including dividends . That's better than the more recent three month gain of 17%, implying that share price has plateaued recently. It seems likely the market is waiting on fundamental developments with the business before pushing the share price higher (or lower). 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.
