Glimpse Group (NASDAQ:VRAR investor one-year losses grow to 65% as the stock sheds US$8.6m this past week

Taking the occasional loss is an integral part of investing in the stock market. Anyone who held The Glimpse Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:VRAR) over the past year knows what a loser looks like. During this relatively short period, the stock price fell by 65%. Because Glimpse Group has not been listed for many years, the market is still learning more about the company’s performance. The falls have accelerated recently, with the stock price falling 25% in the past three months. Of course, this stock price move may well have been influenced by the 11% decline in the broader market throughout the period.

Looking back to the past week, investor sentiment for Glimpse Group is not positive, so let’s see if there is a mismatch between the fundamentals and the stock price.

Glimpse Group has not been profitable for the last twelve months, we are unlikely to see a strong correlation between its share price and earnings per share (EPS).

A different perspective

Glimpse Group shareholders are down 65% for the year, even worse than the market’s 25% loss. It’s no doubt a disappointment, but the stock may well have done better in a stronger market. With the stock down 25% in the last three months, the market doesn’t seem to believe the company has solved all of its problems. Given the relatively short history of this stock, we would remain fairly cautious until we see strong trading performance. I find it very interesting to look at stock price over the long term as a proxy for company performance. But to really get insight, we also need to consider other information.
