The successful prediction of 3M stock price could yield a significant profit to investors. But is it possible? The efficient-market hypothesis suggests that all published stock prices of traded companies, such as 3M Company, 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 3M based on analysis of 3M hews, social hype, general headline patterns, and widely used predictive technical indicators.

The number of cover stories for 3M depends on current market conditions and 3M's risk-adjusted performance over time. The coverage that generates the most noise at a given time depends on the prevailing investment theme that 3M is classified under. However, while its typical story may have numerous social followers, the rapid visibility can also attract short-sellers, who usually are skeptical about 3M's long-term prospects. So, having above-average coverage will typically attract above-average short interest, leading to significant price volatility.

Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value.
