Percentages are also misleading. The timeframe will always stretch the percentage. Sure, a 20% drop on the same day is significant, but it still says absolutely nothing about the overall situation, nor why it happened. It is a significantly smaller drop when compared to their year long performance, and a significantly larger loss if only the last month is taken into account. There's research on this, observing day to day changes on stock prices to describe a company is just as effective as describing people's personalities through astrology. It's bullshit.
Yes, and that's literally all this post is trying to convey. This post is not a news report or a economist's dissertation, this is a screenshot of the pre-bell stock price posted to a gaming community on Lemmy
It's already being called the lowest price in a decade. Technically true, but honestly disingenuous since the massive price bump to over €100 was an anomaly caused by the pandemic that swept the entire industry, not just this one publisher. Also drivel to generate engagement. Just like this post, here we are discussing it, despite the fact that it is misleading and poor characterization of the entire picture.
It sounds like you really need to buy some Ubisoft stock right now.
I will repeat, and I can't stress enough with this reiteration, fuck Ubisoft.
It being at its lowest price in a decade is literally true. I don't have a clue why you're bringing the pandemic into this since this stock reached its peak in 2018. Ubisoft stock has been on a precipitous decline for 4 straight years now, wtf are you even trying to convey here?
