Shareholders in Boston Omaha (NYSE:BOC) have lost 14%, as stock drops 7.3% this past week
It's easy to match the overall market return by buying an index fund. When you buy individual stocks, you can make higher profits, but you also face the risk of under-performance. For example, the Boston Omaha Corporation (NYSE:BOC) share price is down 14% in the last year. That contrasts poorly with the market decline of 4.6%. Longer term shareholders haven't suffered as badly, since the stock is down a comparatively less painful 7.0% in three years. The last month has also been disappointing, with the stock slipping a further 21%. This could be related to the recent financial results - you can catch up on the most recent data by reading our company report.
