Croda International (LON:CRDA) investors are sitting on a loss of 29% if they invested a year ago
It's easy to match the overall market return by buying an index fund. But if you buy individual stocks, you can do both better or worse than that. For example, the Croda International Plc (LON:CRDA) share price is down 31% in the last year. That's disappointing when you consider the market returned 7.4%. Zooming out, the stock is down 29% in the last three years.
Since shareholders are down over the longer term, lets look at the underlying fundamentals over the that time and see if they've been consistent with returns.
