	Stock valuation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The most theoretically acceptable stock valuation method, called income valuation or discounted cash flow method, involves discounting the profits (dividends, earnings, cash flows) the stock will bring to the stockholder in the foreseeable future, and a final value on disposition.
		Valuing a stock is not only to estimate its fair value, but also to determine its potential price range, taking into account market behavior aspects.
		One of the behavioral valuation tools is the stock image, a coefficient that bridges the theoretical fair value and the market price.
