"The typical public corporation now runs on a valuation treadmill . If a company's stock is traded widely in public markets, it must take care to keep up with the pace of market expectations. Whether it be through developing transformative new products or consistently meeting quarterly financial projections, a public company must continually convince investors that it will generate profits in future years. If investors become concerned that a company's profitability is slowing, they can drastically readjust its valuation and its stock price will fall"-- Provided by publisher.
