U.S. Steel said that over 98% of the votes were in favor of the deal under which Nippon […]

It might be of some concern to shareholders to see the Nabors Industries Ltd. (NYSE:NBR) share price down 25% in the last month. But that doesn’t undermine the rather lovely longer-term return, if you measure over the last three years. Indeed, the share price is up a very strong 115% in that time. So the […]
It might seem bad, but the worst that can happen when you buy a stock (without leverage) is that its share price goes to zero. But if you buy shares in a really great company, you can more than double your money. For instance the Delek US Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:DK) share price is 107% higher […]
While LSB Industries, Inc. (NYSE:LXU) shareholders are probably generally happy, the stock hasn’t had particularly good run recently, with the share price falling 22% in the last quarter. But that doesn’t displace its brilliant performance over three years. In fact, the share price has taken off in that time, up 428%. So you might argue […]
Some Thryv Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:THRY) shareholders are probably rather concerned to see the share price fall 32% over the last three months. But don’t let that distract from the very nice return generated over three years. In the last three years the share price is up, 67%: better than the market. While this past week […]

(NASDAQ:OSIS) share price is up 61% in the last 5 years, clearly besting the market return of around 46% (ignoring dividends). However, more recent returns haven’t been […]
It hasn’t been the best quarter for Alpine Immune Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:ALPN) shareholders, since the share price has fallen 28% in that time. But that doesn’t change the fact that the returns over the last five years have been pleasing. Its return of 75% has certainly bested the market return! In light of the stock […]
MasTec, Inc. (NYSE:MTZ) shareholders might understandably be very concerned that the share price has dropped 46% in the last quarter. On the bright side the share price is up over the last half decade. However we are not very impressed because the share price is only up 53%, less than the market return of 71%. […]
The worst result, after buying shares in a company (assuming no leverage), would be if you lose all the money you put in. But when you pick a company that is really flourishing, you can make more than 100%. For instance the Helix Energy Solutions Group, Inc. (NYSE:HLX) share price is 275% higher than it […]
