In his essay The Superinvestors of Graham-and-Doddsville Warren Buffett described how share prices do not always rationally reflect the value of a business. 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).

Lintes Technology was able to grow EPS by 4.0% in the last twelve months. This EPS growth is significantly lower than the 33% increase in the share price. So it's fair to assume the market has a higher opinion of the business than it a year ago.
