ASGN's (NYSE:ASGN) Five-year Earnings Growth Trails the Favorable Shareholder Returns
The main point of investing for the long term is to make money. But more than that, you probably want to see it rise more than the market average. Unfortunately for shareholders, while the ASGN Incorporated (NYSE:ASGN) share price is up 54% in the last five years, that's less than the market return. Over the last twelve months the stock price has risen a very respectable 7.0%.
長期投資的要點是賺錢。但不僅如此,你可能希望看到它的漲幅超過市場平均水平。對於股東來說,不幸的是,儘管ASGN公司(紐約證券交易所代碼:ASGN)的股價在過去五年中上漲了54%,但仍低於市場回報率。在過去的十二個月中,股價上漲了7.0%,非常可觀。
Since the stock has added US$185m to its market cap in the past week alone, let's see if underlying performance has been driving long-term returns.
由於該股僅在過去一週的市值就增加了1.85億美元,因此讓我們看看基礎表現是否推動了長期回報。

To paraphrase Benjamin Graham: Over the short term the market is a voting machine, but over the long term it's a weighing machine. One imperfect but simple way to consider how the market perception of a company has shifted is to compare the change in the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price movement.
用本傑明·格雷厄姆的話來說:從短期來看,市場是一臺投票機器,但從長遠來看,它是一臺稱重機。考慮市場對公司的看法發生了怎樣的變化的一種不完美但簡單的方法是將每股收益(EPS)的變化與股價走勢進行比較。
During five years of share price growth, ASGN achieved compound earnings per share (EPS) growth of 6.7% per year. This EPS growth is lower than the 9% average annual increase in the share price. This suggests that market participants hold the company in higher regard, these days. And that's hardly shocking given the track record of growth.
在五年的股價增長中,ASGN實現了每年6.7%的複合每股收益(EPS)增長。每股收益的增長低於股價9%的平均年增長率。這表明,如今,市場參與者對公司的重視程度更高。考慮到增長的記錄,這並不令人震驚。

A Different Perspective
不同的視角
ASGN shareholders are up 7.0% for the year. But that was short of the market average. If we look back over five years, the returns are even better, coming in at 9% per year for five years. Maybe the share price is just taking a breather while the business executes on its growth strategy. 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. For instance, we've identified 2 warning signs for ASGN that you should be aware of.
ASGN的股東今年增長了7.0%。但這低於市場平均水平。如果我們回顧五年,回報率甚至更高,五年內每年爲9%。也許在企業執行增長戰略的同時,股價只是在稍作休息。儘管市場狀況可能對股價產生的不同影響值得考慮,但還有其他因素更爲重要。例如,我們已經確定了兩個你應該注意的 ASGN 警告標誌。
