First Bank's market price often diverges from its book value, the accounting figure shown on First's balance sheet. Smart investors calculate First Bank's intrinsic value - its true economic worth - which may differ significantly from both market price and book value. Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value. Since First Bank's trading price responds to investor sentiment, macroeconomic conditions, and market psychology, it can swing far from fundamental value.
Please note, there is a significant difference between First Bank's value and its price as these two are different measures arrived at by different means. Investors typically determine if First Bank is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections. However, First Bank's price is the amount at which it trades on the open market and represents the number that a seller and buyer find agreeable to each party.
