Hi, this is odd. What browser are you using?

Looks like it could the autocomplete of the browser they are using.

Try something like this in your global.css https://pasteboard.co/VAf6hbqgxOoU.png

HFT isn't primarily about fundamental valuation.

Neither is an equity's price much of the calendar year.

…yes. Which is why OP made the argument that this tool, which helps with fundamental performance, isn’t very useful for calculating an equity’s price target.

https://www.useequityval.com/model?ticker=CRSP Current Price: $56.22 Projected Price: $20,806,772,549,824,028.00 Difference: 37,009,556,296,378,460% Glad I'm long.

Haha the initial model is not a good representation of value as it projects the lasts years metrics out 5 years. 80K% growth for 5 years would do that. Thanks for pointing it out. I need to incorporate some boundaries for the initial values lol.

What’s shallow about it? If someone posted “Twitter for pets” should we all just instinctively applaud it? I posted links from respectable publications - the WSJ included - supporting my comment. It’s been well known for decades that almost everyone sucks at “analyzing stocks” using any methodology.

should we all just instinctively applaud it? No. Which is in the site docs as well: When something isn't good, you needn't pretend that it is, but don't be gratuitously negative. But more importantly, what makes your comment shallow is not the ostensible depth and heft of your links, it's that it shows little evidence of having looked at the thing being showhn - it's a thread-invariant trope. If someone does a Show H…

I mean if you really want to quote HN rules

Hi, loved the idea behind your product. Just a quick question about your tech stack?

What stack did you use? Im trying to learn more about web development and was in the process of learning how to make my idea. Im leaning towards the MERN stack rn but not exactly sure if its a good idea, so im just asking you also what were the criterias/questions you asked yourself for choosing your tech stack?

We should distinguish between:

- price (absolute level)

- price movements (relative change)

Your claim is that an equity's price isn't usually a reflection of fundamental value.

On how many days this year (or this decade) was Google's market cap lower than that of Cheesecake Factory? Why?

I didn't comment on whether you've read the article. There's a strong expectation a toplevel comment in a Show HN thread is concretely about the thing being showhn. That's not some complicated thing that requires the subtle parsing of multiple rules.
