What Does The Institutional Ownership Tell Us About Stepan?
机构所有权告诉我们史提宾有什么?
Institutions typically measure themselves against a benchmark when reporting to their own investors, so they often become more enthusiastic about a stock once it's included in a major index. We would expect most companies to have some institutions on the register, especially if they are growing.
机构通常在向自己的投资者报告时会针对一个基准进行衡量,因此一旦某只股票被纳入主要指数,他们通常会更加热衷于该股票。我们预计大多数公司都会有一些机构在登记簿上,尤其是那些正在增长的公司。
Stepan already has institutions on the share registry. Indeed, they own a respectable stake in the company. This suggests some credibility amongst professional investors. But we can't rely on that fact alone since institutions make bad investments sometimes, just like everyone does. If multiple institutions change their view on a stock at the same time, you could see the share price drop fast. It's therefore worth looking at Stepan's earnings history below. Of course, the future is what really matters.
史提宾公司的股份登记册上已经有机构。实际上,他们拥有该公司的可观股份。这表明专业投资者对该公司持有一定的信誉。但是我们不能仅仅依靠这个事实,因为机构有时也会做出错误的投资,就像每个人一样。如果多个机构同时改变其对一个股票的看法,你可能会看到股价快速下跌。因此,值得看一下下面的史提宾盈利历史。当然,未来才是真正重要的。

Since institutional investors own more than half the issued stock, the board will likely have to pay attention to their preferences. Stepan is not owned by hedge funds. BlackRock, Inc. is currently the company's largest shareholder with 15% of shares outstanding. For context, the second largest shareholder holds about 11% of the shares outstanding, followed by an ownership of 8.3% by the third-largest shareholder.
由于机构投资者拥有超过一半的发行股,董事会可能需要注意他们的喜好。史提宾不是由对冲基金拥有的。所持有的股份中现在BlackRock,Inc.是公司最大的股东,拥有15%的流通股。作为背景,第二大股东持有流通股的约11%,第三大股东持有8.3%的股权。
On further inspection, we found that more than half the company's shares are owned by the top 7 shareholders, suggesting that the interests of the larger shareholders are balanced out to an extent by the smaller ones.
经过进一步检查,我们发现该公司超过一半的股权由前7大股东持有,这意味着较小股东的利益在一定程度上可以平衡较大股东的利益。
While studying institutional ownership for a company can add value to your research, it is also a good practice to research analyst recommendations to get a deeper understand of a stock's expected performance. Quite a few analysts cover the stock, so you could look into forecast growth quite easily.
虽然研究公司的机构所有权可以增加您的研究价值,但研究分析师建议是了解股票预期表现的更深入的做法。相当多的分析师都对该股票进行了研究,因此您可以轻松地查看预测增长。
