Based on the following stock quotes:

52 Week High: 70.28
52 Week Low: 38.24
Volume: 2,516,927
Stock 2:
Current Price: $22.96
52 Week High: 35.00
52 Week Low: 15.00
Volume: 10,679,671
Thoughts?

I can’t see how anyone can possibly make an informed recommendation based on that information alone.
Posted on 10/26/17 at 9:11 pm to Chicken
I'm sensing that this is some kind of trick question.

Definitely can't make informed decision on this little info.

make an ill-informed decision...this is for a 6th grade class.
Posted on 10/26/17 at 10:12 pm to Chicken
Stock 1 in an eight grade class for me
Posted on 10/26/17 at 10:25 pm to Chicken
I guess stock 2. I would love to know what this class is trying to teach them.
Posted on 10/26/17 at 10:37 pm to Chicken
Purely on what is given I guess #2 but I would probably keep my money given the info available.

Why stock 2?
Posted on 10/26/17 at 11:13 pm to Chicken
More volume and a higher % growth if it reached the 52 week high.
Posted on 10/26/17 at 11:52 pm to Chicken
The only question to ask... Are the stocks trending towards the lows or the highs?
Whoever is asking this question doesn’t know much. There is no intelligent way to compare those two stocks based on the limited info.

Stock #2
Posted on 10/27/17 at 4:07 am to Chicken
Is this a math question?

The correct answer is that you cannot make an informed decision with that information alone. Whoever drew up that question is ignorant.

Dividend?
PE ratio?
Sales?
Business?
Need more to go forward.

Chicken’s recent posts have had poor reception. That’s the only trend I see in this post
Posted on 10/27/17 at 10:16 am to Chicken
Using the current price for Stock 1 as a standard ($54.76), the equivalent numbers (proportionately; apples to apples) for Stock 2 are as follows:
Stock 1
Current Price $54.76
52 Week High $70.28
52 Week Low $38.24
Volume 2,516,927
Stock 2 (adjusted)
Current Price $54.76
52 Week High $83.48
52 Week Low $35.78
Volume 25,471,201
So for Stock 2, there's more headroom to hit the 52 wk High, but a little further to fall to hit bottom.
Hope this helps.... How relevant is Volume in this example?
