    Revenue is one of the metrics that since stock prices. There are many, but the point is it’s not just all random speculation, it is metric driven.

    Maybe I “miread” what they’re saying because they’re not expressing it correctly. You said quality doesn’t matter in products, the stock market is all just guess work, and that you can’t run a 4:1 QA to dev ratio. All that is just clearly wrong. You’re saying these things so matter of fact like but they make no sense to anyone who’s worked with those things.

    No… People’s perceived value did not make the stocks go up. You said I misread, you clearly didn’t read what I said. COVID impacted revenue in an unpredictable way, that impact to revenue effected the market. Lots of crazy stuff happened during COVID, not all of it effected revenue. You act like the stock market is a bunch of people guessing, like there isn’t a massive skill to it. Knowing what to look for and what to track, that’s how a lot of investment firms work. Hiring people who watch market behavior and metrics.

    When you buy stock you’re investing in a commodity, just like gold. The value of that commodity is then impacted by many factors that can effect the value of that commodity. It’s not just guess work and make believe lol.
