We regret to report that long term Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group Limited (HKG:1929) shareholders have had that experience, with the share price dropping 55% in three years, versus a market decline of about 13%.    The more recent news is of little comfort, with the share price down 47% in a year.     Shareholders have had an even rougher run lately, with the share price down 38% in the last 90 days.      If the past week is anything to go by, investor sentiment for Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group isn't positive, so let's see if there's a mismatch between fundamentals and the share price.   See our latest analysis for Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group   While the efficient markets hypothesis continues to be taught by some, it has been proven that markets are over-reactive dynamic systems, and investors are not always rational.  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 unfortunate three years of share price decline, Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group actually saw its earnings per share (EPS) improve by 2.6% per year.  This is quite a puzzle, and suggests there might be something temporarily buoying the share price.  Or else the company was over-hyped in the past, and so its growth has disappointed.   It's pretty reasonable to suspect the market was previously to bullish on the stock, and has since moderated expectations.  Looking to other metrics might better explain the share price change.  We note that the dividend seems healthy enough, so that probably doesn't explain the share price drop.   We like that Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group has actually grown its revenue over the last three years.  But it's not clear to us why the share price is down. It might be worth diving deeper into the fundamentals, lest an opportunity goes begging.       The graphic below depicts how earnings and revenue have changed over time (unveil the exact values by clicking on the image). SEHK:1929 Earnings and Revenue Growth August 2nd 2024 It's good to see that there was some significant insider buying in the last three months. That's a positive.  On the other hand, we think the revenue and earnings trends are much more meaningful measures of the business.   This free report showing analyst forecasts should help you form a view on Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group    What About Dividends? When looking at investment returns, it is important to consider the difference between total shareholder return (TSR) and share price return. The TSR is a return calculation that accounts for the value of cash dividends (assuming that any dividend received was reinvested) and the calculated value of any discounted capital raisings and spin-offs.  Arguably, the TSR gives a more comprehensive picture of the return generated by a stock.  We note that for Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group the TSR over the last 3 years was -45%, which is better than the share price return mentioned above.  And there's no prize for guessing that the dividend payments largely explain the divergence!  A Different Perspective Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group shareholders are down 44% for the year (even including dividends), but the market itself is up 0.6%.  However, keep in mind that even the best stocks will sometimes underperform the market over a twelve month period.     Longer term investors wouldn't be so upset, since they would have made 5%, each year, over five years.  It could be that the recent sell-off is an opportunity, so it may be worth checking the fundamental data for signs of a long term growth trend.        It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group better, we need to consider many other factors.
