Carnival Corporation &'s (NYSE:CCL) investors will be pleased with their strong 196% return over the last three years
The worst result, after buying shares in a company (assuming no leverage), would be if you lose all the money you put in. But if you buy shares in a really great company, you can more than double your money. To wit, the Carnival Corporation & plc (NYSE:CCL) share price has flown 196% in the last three years. That sort of return is as solid as granite. It's also good to see the share price up 49% over the last quarter. So let's assess the underlying fundamentals over the last 3 years and see if they've moved in lock-step with shareholder returns. This technology could replace computers: discover the 20 stocks are working to make quantum computing a reality. While markets are a powerful pricing mechanism, share prices reflect investor sentiment, not just underlying business performance. One flawed but reasonable way to assess how sentiment around a company has changed is to compare the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price. Carnival Corporation & became profitable within the last three years. That kind of transition can be an inflection point that justifies a strong share price gain, just as we have seen here. You can see how EPS has changed over time in the image below (click on the chart to see the exact values). It is of course excellent to see how Carnival Corporation & has grown profits over the years, but the future is more important for shareholders. Take a more thorough look at Carnival Corporation &'s financial health with this free report on its balance sheet. A Different Perspective It's good to see that Carnival Corporation & has rewarded shareholders with a total shareholder return of 96% in the last twelve months. That's better than the annualised return of 15% over half a decade, implying that the company is doing better recently. Given the share price momentum remains strong, it might be worth taking a closer look at the stock, lest you miss an opportunity. 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. Like risks, for instance. Every company has them, and we've spotted 2 warning signs for Carnival Corporation & (of which 1 is potentially serious!) you should know about. We will like Carnival Corporation & better if we see some big insider buys. While we wait, check out this free list of undervalued stocks (mostly small caps) with considerable, recent, insider buying.
