Yes, if you pick the most embarrassing time period for a given stock, it probably massively under-performed. Alternately, you can pick the most flattering time period.
- ajross 7y agoIt was a statement about a 5-year period in a stock issued just a few weeks longer than 9 years ago. Are you seriously making a cherry picking argument?
