As an investor its worth striving to ensure your overall portfolio beats the market average. But if you try your hand at stock picking, your risk returning less than the market. We regret to report that long term Banyan Tree Holdings Limited (SGX:B58) shareholders have had that experience, with the share price dropping 47% in three years, versus a market decline of about 1.2%. Unfortunately the share price momentum is still quite negative, with prices down 9.4% in thirty days.

Banyan Tree Holdings isn't currently profitable, so most analysts would look to revenue growth to get an idea of how fast the underlying business is growing. When a company doesn't make profits, we'd generally expect to see good revenue growth. That's because it's hard to be confident a company will be sustainable if revenue growth is negligible, and it never makes a profit.

In the last three years Banyan Tree Holdings saw its revenue shrink by 10% per year. That's not what investors generally want to see. The stock has disappointed holders over the last three years, falling 14%, annualized. That makes sense given the lack of either profits or revenue growth. However, in this kind of situation you can sometimes find opportunity, where sentiment is negative but the company is actually making good progress.
