I can't recall very well, but I remember hearing that sony was starting to hurt financialy right after the FF movie came out. Hmm...I don't have a link, but I've heard several times that Sony's financial situationw as fishy...
anywhos, u wanted ratios? look, I'm an econ student, not an econ major. In any case...
Nintendo
121.862 USD
35,800 shares
= 4,362,659.60 USD
Sony
37.8101 USD
1,481,600 shares
= 56,019,444.16 USD
And this is common stock, mind you...
I've come to a conclusion though that this really doesn't tell me anything at all. Nintendo is obviously limiting their stock disallowing too many people from owning their company which means the stock they do put out is worth a lot more than Sony's. In any case, we know that they're both worth much more than 56 million. I'm just curious to know how much each company is really worth...
a side note: nintendo stock has a net change +2.89% whereas sony has a change of -.24%
so those of you who have been speculating were right. look at some of the charts on the sites i posted and you can see that sony hasn't been doing THAT great as of late...
