:D..........buyers

[prawn_86]

When people are buying more than what others are selling.

Simple micro-economics really.

Vice versa, for stocks falling (dont believe all the short selling beat ups)

[ceasar73]

Why do buyers buy stock XYZ?

what makes a stock attractive? Is it EPS?

what is it for you?

basically, it's sexiness.

Is the stock presenting itself in a way that it wants to be bought?

[freddy2]

Price - determined by simple supply and demand
Value - determined by future earnings

Short term price will be the main factor to cause a stock to rise, over the long term it will be value that is the main factor.

[ceasar73]

Yes , in the long run I believe it comes down to value - determined by future earnings.

DEMAND

On the chart often it (demand) jumps out and screams buy me.
Silence is just as easy to pick.
As is confusion.
Plain lack of demand.
Uphoria,Fear,and greed.

P/E's/Directors visions/Future earnings,arent evident as is often the case Fundamentally.

Sheep. One starts off & the others follow. When they have eaten most of the feed, one starts off for another paddock & the others follow.

[ceasar73]

So you buy a stock just b/c others are buying it?:confused:

[wayneL]

Nah, it's the same criminals that made oil go up. It's all manipulation.

[Seneca60BC]

I think basically future EPS - which equates to value.

[nunthewiser]

LOL....INFIDELS!

Yep - bad title, your right...:o

yep!

[wayneL]

Value?

Perceived value yes. Actual value - not always.

(eg tech boom, tulip bulbs etc)

Doesn't Perceived value = price and
value = Actual value? :confused:

cheers,

Yes, but there is mass confusion between the two concepts.

Consider these two maxims:

The value of something is what someone is prepared to pay for it - folk saying

Price is what you pay, value is what you get - W Buffett

Some people paid $20 for Lehmans recently, but the value was 0

[ceasar73]

"Yes, but there is mass confusion between the two concepts." true.

wayneL - why do you buy shares in company XYZ?

A stock will rise in price when the buyers (or bulls) become more aggressive and willing to pay higher prices.

LOL yep.....:D.personally use many different factors for stock entry . EPS yeah for investments but thats only part of it . entry depends on buyers too also TA , vols , allsorts . also buy for other reasons , take EXT for example , many moons ago when uranium was the best thing since elvis i noticed a lil tinpot next door to rossing and bought just on a nearology factor ... no eps , no cash :) no nuffing except the fact they were a likely target in the future ..... look whos buying chunks now ......i bought MGX many moons ago based on the fact i could see there stockpile shed from my front porch , was running at a loss but i could see them building at a rate of knots , when i bought tho it was illiquid , unloved and iron ore wasnt bigger than elvis ..... lol im currently holding a few BDM .. hahahah i say . no cash no earnings no nuffing except a smart bunch behind them and moving quietly in the backround doing there thing without a thought for market movement and silly things like that :) . i bought because i could see a future IF they cvould find a doorway . silly .maybe . but hey each to there own on there choices .. dont know if my ramblings cleared anything up but hey i had to post somthing

[tech/a]

How about percieved OPPORTUNITY.

I guess when I buy a stock or a property thats what Ive dome the numbers on---and I feel there is an opportunity to profit.

I'm sure Buffet would say the same of his investment in Hathaway.
