Ohmyhome Limited (NASDAQ:OMH) Stock's 34% Dive Might Signal An Opportunity But It Requires Some Scrutiny

Ohmyhome Limited (NASDAQ:OMH) shares have had a horrible month, losing 34% after a relatively good period beforehand. For any long-term shareholders, the last month ends a year to forget by locking in a 78% share price decline.

In spite of the heavy fall in price, there still wouldn't be many who think Ohmyhome's price-to-sales (or "P/S") ratio of 2x is worth a mention when the median P/S in the United States' Real Estate industry is similar at about 2.2x. However, investors might be overlooking a clear opportunity or potential setback if there is no rational basis for the P/S.
