Understanding Merck Company requires distinguishing between market price and book value, where the latter reflects Merck's accounting equity. The concept of intrinsic value - what Merck's is actually worth based on fundamentals - guides informed investors toward better entry and exit points. Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value. Market sentiment, economic cycles, and investor behavior can push Merck's price substantially above or below its fundamental value.

Understanding that Merck's value differs from its trading price is crucial, as each reflects different aspects of the company. Evaluating whether Merck represents a sound investment requires analyzing earnings trends, revenue growth, technical signals, industry dynamics, and expert forecasts. In contrast, Merck's trading price reflects the actual exchange value where willing buyers and sellers reach mutual agreement.
