Is the Stock Market Effective at Valuing Shares

Abstract: This 12 page paper looks at the argument that the stock markets do not value firms in an effective manner. Using Tesco, a UK supermarket as an example and five years of results the performance of the firm is assessed against the market prices and then the use of book prices, P/E ratios and the dividend discount model are used to determine the effectiveness of the markets in assessing the value of a firm. The bibliography cites 8 sources.
