Quantum Growth Indicators

Growth stocks usually refer to those companies expected to grow sales and earnings faster than the market average. Growth stocks typically don't pay dividends, often look expensive, and usually trading at a high P/E ratio. Nevertheless, such valuations could be relatively cheap if the company continues to grow, which will drive the share price up. However, since most investors are paying a high price for a growth stock, based on expectations, if those expectations are not fully realized, growth stocks can see dramatic declines.

The market value of Quantum is measured differently than its book value, which is the value of Quantum that is recorded on the company's balance sheet. Investors also form their own opinion of Quantum's value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is Quantum's true underlying value. Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value. Because Quantum's market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect Quantum's underlying business (such as a pandemic or basic market pessimism), market value can vary widely from intrinsic value.
Please note, there is a significant difference between Quantum's value and its price as these two are different measures arrived at by different means. Investors typically determine if Quantum is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections. However, Quantum'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.
