Yahoo Finance Titomic (ASX:TTT) Share Prices Have Dropped 63% In The Last Year
Titomic Limited (ASX:TTT) shareholders should be happy to see the share price up 23% in the last month. But that's small comfort given the dismal price performance over the last year. Specifically, the stock price slipped by 63% in that time. The share price recovery is not so impressive when you consider the fall. It may be that the fall was an overreaction.

Typically a growth stock like this will be volatile, with some shareholders concerned about the red ink on the bottom line (that is, the losses).

A Different Perspective
Titomic shareholders are down 63% for the year, even worse than the market loss of 8.3%. There's no doubt that's a disappointment, but the stock may well have fared better in a stronger market. It's great to see a nice little 3.5% rebound in the last three months. Let's just hope this isn't the widely-feared 'dead cat bounce' (which would indicate further declines to come).
