While the efficient markets hypothesis continues to be taught by some, it has been proven that markets are over-reactive dynamic systems, and investors are not always rational. One way to examine how market sentiment has changed over time is to look at the interaction between a company's share price and its earnings per share (EPS).

During three years of share price growth, exceet Group achieved compound earnings per share growth of 51% per year. This EPS growth is higher than the 32% average annual increase in the share price. Therefore, it seems the market has moderated its expectations for growth, somewhat.
