Hi,
I'm trying to understand stock price movements better than the way percentages work.
i.e. Stock price 10 goes to 20 = 100% gain.
Stock price 20 goes back down to 10 = 50% loss.
I feel like the arithmetic numbers 100 and 50 are drastically different.
And this is not representative of the change. Which is 0 in price.
Part 2
One of the most difficult ways of understanding stocks is that something that goes down 50% can go down further 50%. And STILL can go down 50%.
I don't my LINEAR mind can process something like that. Cause my mind seems to think 50 and 50 would be 100% drop.
I hope I'm making sense. Thanks for your help.
