Determinants of security values
For decades in the U.S., street vendors have popped up in densely populated areas, such as major cities, beaches, and festivals. These businesses sell things from hamburgers and hot dogs to tacos and Mexican street corn. After the recession hit between 2008 and 2009, the U.S. saw an increase in the number of mobile food businesses, namely an increase in the number of food trucks.
Because this is the first time this industry has seen this much growth, suppose investors look carefully at historical food truck financial records, customer feedback, and any other information they can get their hands on to give them better insight into the industry's potential performance. After investors review this information, suppose they determine that there is a high likelihood of the businesses generating high cash flows, and thus a high return on their investment, and they revise their valuations of the stocks accordingly.
True or False: Given the scenario, the investors are using firm-specific information to take their positions on the security.
True
False
Use the graph to show what happens to the supply, demand, and equilibrium price in the market for food truck stocks in the short run, assuming that if supply and demand change, they do so simultaneously.
