But if you buy individual stocks, you can do both better or worse than that.  Unfortunately the Woodside Energy Group Ltd (ASX:WDS) share price slid 31% over twelve months.  That's disappointing when you consider the market returned 26%.     On the bright side, the stock is actually up 1.3% in the last three years.      Furthermore, it's down 15% in about a quarter. That's not much fun for holders.      Since shareholders are down over the longer term, lets look at the underlying fundamentals over the that time and see if they've been consistent with returns.    Check out our latest analysis for Woodside Energy Group   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 imperfect but simple way to consider how the market perception of a company has shifted is to compare the change in the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price movement.   Unfortunately Woodside Energy Group reported an EPS drop of 72% for the last year.   This fall in the EPS is significantly worse than the 31% the share price fall.  It may have been that the weak EPS was not as bad as some had feared.   The company's earnings per share (over time) is depicted in the image below (click to see the exact numbers). ASX:WDS Earnings Per Share Growth October 30th 2024 It's good to see that there was some significant insider buying in the last three months. That's a positive.  That said, we think earnings and revenue growth trends are even more important factors to consider.  This free interactive report on Woodside Energy Group's earnings, revenue and cash flow is a great place to start, if you want to investigate the stock further.   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.  In the case of Woodside Energy Group, it has a TSR of -26% for the last 1 year. That exceeds its share price return that we previously mentioned.  The dividends paid by the company have thusly boosted the total shareholder return.  A Different Perspective While the broader market gained around 26% in the last year, Woodside Energy Group shareholders lost 26% (even including dividends).  However, keep in mind that even the best stocks will sometimes underperform the market over a twelve month period.     On the bright side, long term shareholders have made money, with a gain of 0.2% per year over half a decade.  If the fundamental data continues to indicate long term sustainable growth, the current sell-off could be an opportunity worth considering.        It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand Woodside Energy Group better, we need to consider many other factors.
