有時候,股市或者某一只股票暴跌的最大原因是它們之前先經歷了暴漲。
所謂“樹高不過天”。任何股票都不可能永遠上漲。
新冠肺炎疫情改變了我們以前所堅持的做事情的方式,某些能夠利用這種變化趨勢的股票趁勢瘋漲。
但在疫情當中上漲的許多股票,最近幾周都露出了疲態。Overstock的股價一度從3月的最低點暴漲超過2,000%,但如今已經下跌超過44%。Wayfair的股價從3月23日開始上漲了1,000%,現在已經下跌超過25%。Zoom的股價跌幅超過23%。DocuSign的股價較其近期的最高點下跌了超過26%。
或許是這些股票的行情有些超前。也可能是人們對于后疫情時代有些反應過度。但我們假設這些公司是在正確的時間出現在了正確的位置,并且從現在開始最終成為最成功的股票。
即使這些公司不負眾望實現了當前定下的遠大目標,它們的股票最終帶來巨額投資回報,這個過程也不可能是直線上升。未來幾十年,這些公司可能成為最成功的股票,但它們依舊可能在某個時間點暴跌。
這是即使最好的股票也要經歷的過程,因為像Uber這樣成功的公司,預期很難與現實保持一致。
我們不妨回憶一下一些史上最成功的公司、品牌和股票,在上市之后的遭遇。
蘋果(Apple)自上世紀80年代初以來的漲幅高達約120,000%(年度漲幅19.5%)。但蘋果股票曾經有三次跌幅超過75%,股價腰斬的情況超過五次。
Facebook自2012年上市以來,股價上漲超過600%(年度漲幅27%)。但其股票曾經三次下跌30%以上,包括在上市后不久暴跌53%。
自2002年以來,奈飛(Netflix)股價上漲超過43,000%(年度漲幅39%)。但該流媒體業巨頭的股價曾經四次下跌50%以上,包括兩次下跌75%以上。
微軟公司(Microsoft)的股票自上世紀80年代中期以來上漲近350,000%(年度漲幅27%)。然而,在互聯網泡沫破滅之后,微軟股票曾經在近15年時間里持續下跌,其股價從最高點至最低點的跌幅高達75%。
亞馬遜(Amazon)是一只備受喜愛的股票,所有人都希望“在它IPO的時候能買1萬美元的股票。”其股價從1997年至今的漲幅約為170,000%(年度漲幅38%)。但亞馬遜股價的最大跌幅接近95%。亞馬遜自上市以來經歷過多次股價下跌30%的情況。
沃爾瑪(Walmart)在上世紀70年代初期上市。其股價在接近五十年的時間里上漲超過321,000%(年度漲幅19%)。但沃爾瑪股價曾經有八次下跌30%以上,在2000年至2012年期間,其股票的表現始終低迷不振。
麥當勞(McDonald’s)的股價自上世紀70年代初以來上漲了31,000%(年度漲幅13%)。但“金拱門”曾經兩次股價暴跌超過65%。
耐克(Nike)股價自上世紀80年代以來上漲了近100,000%(年度漲幅19%)。但菲爾?奈特一手創立的這個品牌的股價曾經下跌75%、62%和48%。
明白了嗎?
我不知道這些居家辦公或居家健身的公司的股票,是否也會像上面那些公司一樣大獲成功。可能不會,但我認為一切皆有可能。
即使這些新興的公司從現在開始,最終變成全世界最成功的股票,它們在這個過程中肯定會經歷一次或者更多次暴跌。
那些成功的公司和股票都會有這樣的經歷。
股價暴跌的原因可能是無法實現預期、公司領導層失誤或者發生不可預測的事件嚴重影響了公司的業務。
要想在股市賺大錢,就要做好在這個過程中承受巨大損失的準備。(財富中文網)

Sometimes the biggest reason the stock market or certain stocks experience a severe decline in price is because they first experienced a massive rise in price.
Trees don’t grow to the sky.
The pandemic has changed the way we view the many previously held ways of doing things, which has led to some insane gains in certain stocks that have been able to capitalize.
Many of those pandemic winners finally took a breather in recent weeks. Overstock has crashed more than 44% after rising more than 2,000% since the bottom in March. Wayfair is down more than 25% after rising 1,000% since March 23rd. Zoom fell more than 23%. DocuSign is off more 26% from its recent highs.
It’s possible these stocks have gotten ahead of themselves. Maybe people have overreacted about how things will look in a post-pandemic world. But let’s assume these companies were not only in the right place at the right time, but end up becoming some of the biggest stocks from here on out.
Even if these companies live up to their now lofty expectations and their stocks end up being grand slam investments, it’s not going to be a straight line up and to the right. These companies could become some of the most successful stocks of the next few decades and they will still crash spectacularly at some point.
This is the way it has to be for even the best of stocks because it’s impossible for expectations to stay in line with reality when you have uber-successful companies.
Let’s take a little stroll down drawdown memory lane to see how some of the most successful companies, brands and stocks in history have done over their life as a public company.
Apple is up almost 120,000% (19.5% annualized) since the early 1980s. Yet the stock has fallen more than 75% on three different occasions and has been cut in half more times than you could count on one hand.
Facebook is up more than 600% (27% annualized) since its IPO in 2012. The stock has endured three separate declines of 30% or more since then including a 53% crash immediately after going public.
Netflix is up more than 43,000% (39% annualized) since 2002. The stock of the streaming giant has fallen 50% or worse four times including two 75% or worse crashes.
Microsoft is up nearly 350,000% (27% annualized) since the mid-1980s. It was, however, in a drawdown for nearly 15 years following the bursting of the dot-com bubble, which saw a price decline of 75% from peak-to-trough.
Amazon is everyone’s favorite “If you would have put $10k in at the IPO…” stock for good reason. It’s up almost 170,000% (38% annualized) since 1997. The worst crash in the company’s stock was a plunge of almost 95%. There have been multiple 30% slides since then.
Walmart went public in the early-1970s. In close to five decades its stock is up more than 321,000% (19% annualized). It has eight corrections of 30% or worse in that time along with an underwater run in price from 2000 to 2012.
McDonald’s is up 31,000% (13% annualized) since the early-1970s. There have been two crashes in excess of 65% for the golden arches in that time.
Nike is up almost 100,000% (19% annualized) since the early-1980s. Phil Knight’s brainchild has seen drops of 75%, 62% and 48%.
You get the point.
I don’t know if these work from home or workout from home stocks will end up being as successful as these companies. Probably not, but I suppose anything is possible.
Yet even if these up and coming corporations do become some of the more successful stocks in the world from here on out, they will almost certainly experience one or more enormous crashes to get there.
This is what happens to successful companies and successful stocks.
They have to crash because expectations get out of whack, company leadership has a misstep or an unforeseen event causes a severe disruption to the business.
If you want to earn big returns in the stock market, expect to live with big losses to get there.
