time to buy?

normally got people see tht jus compare this year quarter and last year quarter?
i see like mcam misleading wor..

Most common mistakes I've seen is people tend to do Q-Q comparisons. 
Comparisons should be made Y-Y.

You have a company who sells toys to the US.
Now in the US, sales peak for the Christmas/holiday period.
So customers usually order in maybe Aug or earlier to make sure they get their holiday sales all prepared.

So this company exporting to US, it's surely gonna have seasonal characteristics. So if one to compare say Q1 to Q2... they would definitely get a massive distortion.

It's same with most of business locally.
There's always some sort of seasonal characteristics.
This is why people compare Y-Y.

Thanks a lot. Anyway after messing around with Bursa for around 2months now, I noticed trading stock warrant (which comes with an expiry date) is a very popular thing. Due to their low prices compared to mother stock they are often traded in high volumes and get shown in the “market live” as the most active stocks traded.

Would you mind explaining it to me how they work? What is exercise price? And how does ppl holding mother stock get free (or is it not free?) warrants? Why does it have an expiry date. Does it have any other function at all besides a medium for trading? And why is there always a ratio like 1:1 around these warrants?

I’m confused in so many ways and I hope I can be enlightened from A to Z regarding this as I cant find any relavant info on investopedia. Of course I’m not plannig to trade warrant just for my own knowledge.
