To calculate the intrinsic value of a stock, we use two valuation methods: DCF Valuation and Relative Valuation.

We take the average of these two methods to estimate the intrinsic value as accurately as possible.

The intrinsic value depends on the future of the company. But the future is not predetermined. As is the intrinsic value.

There is no absolute intrinsic value. The true value lies somewhere between the worst case and best case scenarios. Knowing the full range of possible stock intrinsic values gives a complete picture of the investment risks and opportunities.

Insiders might sell their shares for any number of reasons, but they buy them for only one: they think the price will rise.
