Companies with earnings can still suffer price stagnation due to the following reasons:
1. Overvaluation (de-rating): A company which has been overvalued might take some time for it’s price to meet its valuation. If the market perceives that the companies performance does not meet it’s high valuation, stock price might drop or stay stagnant, despite it’s earnings.
2. Earnings might look high due to one time events, such as selling an asset or tax benefits, rather than growing operational sales.
A company which has strong historical profits but no future growth prospects will likely experience price stagnation.
