Overvalued Stocks:
Overvalued stocks are generally those stocks which are trading higher than their fair value i.e., the value that the companyâs fundamentals, like earnings per share or revenue growth, etc justify. Generally, for overvalued stocks, market value is greater than fair value of the stock because of biased consensus estimates and irrational increase in investor confidence. Such a stock is considered overvalued because of a surge in investor demand or a decline in its fundamentals, which the market fails to price in.
