As an investor, it is worth striving to ensure that your overall portfolio outperforms the market average. But if you try to pick stocks, your risk will return less than the market. Unfortunately, that was the case in the long run Sabra Healthcare Rhett, Inc. (NASDAQ:SBRA), since the stock price has fallen 47% in the past three years, well below the market’s return of about 26%. On top of that, it’s down 14% in about a quarter. This is not much fun for pregnant women. But this may be related to market weakness, which has fallen by 7.4% in the same period.
While the stock rose 3.8% in the last week but long-term shareholders are still in the red, let’s see what the fundamentals can tell us.

in his article Superior Investors in Graham and Doddsville Warren Buffett has described how stock prices do not always logically reflect the value of a company.

What about dividends?
In addition to measuring stock price return, investors must also consider total shareholder return (TSR). While the EPS reflects only the change in the share price, the TSR includes the value of the dividends (assuming they are reinvested) and the benefit of any discounted or incidental capital increase. It’s fair to say that TSR gives a more complete picture of dividend-paying stocks. We note that the Sabra Healthcare REIT has had a TSR over the past three years of -32%, which is better than the aforementioned stock price return.

different perspective
While it’s never a good idea to take a loss, Sabra Healthcare REIT shareholders can take comfort, including dividends, their 12-month late loss of 9.5% wasn’t as bad as the market’s loss of about 25%. Given the overall loss of 1.3% annually over five years, it appears that returns have deteriorated in the last twelve months. While some investors specialize well in buying struggling (but nonetheless undervalued) companies, don’t forget that Buffett said ‘changes rarely turn around’.
