DUKSAN TECHOPIALtd (KOSDAQ:317330) delivers shareholders splendid 180% return over 1 year, surging 9.1% in the last week alone
Unfortunately, investing is risky - companies can and do go bankrupt. But if you pick the right business to buy shares in, you can make more than you can lose. For example, the DUKSAN TECHOPIA Co.,Ltd. (KOSDAQ:317330) share price had more than doubled in just one year - up 180%. Also pleasing for shareholders was the 20% gain in the last three months. Also impressive, the stock is up 43% over three years, making long term shareholders happy, too.
After a strong gain in the past week, it's worth seeing if longer term returns have been driven by improving fundamentals.

To quote Buffett, 'Ships will sail around the world but the Flat Earth Society will flourish. There will continue to be wide discrepancies between price and value in the marketplace...' One way to examine how market sentiment has changed over time is to look at the interaction between a company's share price and its earnings per share (EPS).
During the last year DUKSAN TECHOPIALtd saw its earnings per share (EPS) drop below zero. While some may see this as temporary, we're a skeptical bunch, and so we're a little surprised to see the share price go up. We might get a clue to explain the share price move by looking to other metrics.
Unfortunately DUKSAN TECHOPIALtd's fell 5.2% over twelve months. So the fundamental metrics don't provide an obvious explanation for the share price gain.

A Different Perspective
It's good to see that DUKSAN TECHOPIALtd has rewarded shareholders with a total shareholder return of 180% in the last twelve months. Since the one-year TSR is better than the five-year TSR (the latter coming in at 19% per year), it would seem that the stock's performance has improved in recent times. Someone with an optimistic perspective could view the recent improvement in TSR as indicating that the business itself is getting better with time. While it is well worth considering the different impacts that market conditions can have on the share price, there are other factors that are even more important.
