Saudi Aramco Gets Wall Street's Thumbs Down — Again
Initial public offerings are often extravagant affairs. But even by their hyperbolic standards, with bankers desperately drumming up interest, the Saudi royal family went the extra mile when it sold shares in oil giant Aramco. But it didn't work at the time – and it isn't working now. On the eve of the 2019 IPO, one of the most senior Saudi royals warned 'those who have not subscribed' to the listing would be left 'chewing their thumb' with regret. The $2 trillion valuation the Saudis sought would materialize in 'a few months.' The message: buy now or miss out. Wall Street didn't buy, and it hasn't missed out. Over the last five and a half years, Aramco stock has underperformed all its peers. Now, it's taking on debt to cover its dividend; its shares have fallen to a five-year low and volume is falling, a sign that local and foreign investors are shunning the stock. On a total return basis, including re-invested dividends, Aramco has delivered a paltry 16% since its IPO; the worst among a selection of the world's largest companies, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Even Russia's sanctioned Rosneft Oil Co. PJSC, has done better. Exxon Mobil Corp., Chevron Corp., and Shell Plc have all delivered total returns of more than 50%.

Those who invested in mDR (SGX:Y3D) a year ago are up 83%
Explore mDR's Fair Values from the Community and select yours Passive investing in index funds can generate returns that roughly match the overall market. But if you pick the right individual stocks, you could make more than that. To wit, the mDR Limited (SGX:Y3D) share price is 71% higher than it was a year ago, much better than the market return of around 24% (not including dividends) in the same period. That's a solid performance by our standards! The longer term returns have not been as good, with the stock price only 10.0% higher than it was three years ago. Now it's worth having a look at the company's fundamentals too, because that will help us determine if the long term shareholder return has matched the performance of the underlying business. AI is about to change healthcare. These 20 stocks are working on everything from early diagnostics to drug discovery. The best part - they are all under $10bn in marketcap - there is still time to get in early. In his essay The Superinvestors of Graham-and-Doddsville Warren Buffett described how share prices do not always rationally reflect the value of a business. One flawed but reasonable way to assess how sentiment around a company has changed is to compare the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price. During the last year mDR grew its earnings per share, moving from a loss to a profit. We think the growth looks very prospective, so we're not surprised the market liked it too. Inflection points like this can be a great time to take a closer look at a company. The company's earnings per share (over time) is depicted in the image below (click to see the exact numbers). Before buying or selling a stock, we always recommend a close examination of historic growth trends, available here. 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. It's fair to say that the TSR gives a more complete picture for stocks that pay a dividend. In the case of mDR, it has a TSR of 83% 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 It's nice to see that mDR shareholders have received a total shareholder return of 83% over the last year. Of course, that includes the dividend. That gain is better than the annual TSR over five years, which is 1.3%. Therefore it seems like sentiment around the company has been positive lately. Someone with an optimistic perspective could view the recent improvement in TSR as indicating that the business itself is getting better with time. It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand mDR better, we need to consider many other factors. For instance, we've identified 4 warning signs for mDR (1 is a bit concerning) that you should be aware of. But note: mDR may not be the best stock to buy. So take a peek at this free list of interesting companies with past earnings growth (and further growth forecast).
