The worst result, after buying shares in a company (assuming no leverage), would be if you lose all the money you put in. But on the bright side, you can make far more than 100% on a really good stock. Long term ClearPoint Neuro, Inc. (NASDAQ:CLPT) shareholders would be well aware of this, since the stock is up 217% in five years. And in the last month, the share price has gained 12%. But this could be related to good market conditions -- stocks in its market are up 7.5% in the last month.
With that in mind, it's worth seeing if the company's underlying fundamentals have been the driver of long term performance, or if there are some discrepancies.
