Awesome question, since it was Peter Lynch that said that stock prices, over time, follow earnings per share. How does the investor realize his investment? Only two ways: 1. Dividends paid by the company to shareholders 2. Price appreciation in the value of the share when sold to another buyer. The price of a share is set by the open market, but the "theoretical" value of the share price is the net present value of all future free cash flows, less debt. Since debt is easily measured, its the differing opinions on the value of future cash flows that causes fluctuation in market price.
