The efficient-market hypothesis suggests that all published stock prices of traded companies, such as Union Pacific Corp, already reflect all publicly available information. This academic statement is a fundamental principle of many financial and investing theories used today. However, the typical investor usually disagrees with a 'textbook' version of this hypothesis and continually tries to find mispriced stocks to increase returns. We use internally-developed statistical techniques to arrive at the intrinsic value of Union Pacific based on Union Pacific hews, social hype, general headline patterns, and widely used predictive technical indicators.
