Biggest influence on the price of the stock

Hi Guys,

Please let me know what you think about the below:

1. What is the biggest influence on the price of a stock ?

2. Who is the biggest influence on the price of the stock ?

 

For 1, if you mean "change in price", I would say the float.

For 2, who knows ?

 

Supply and Demand.

Institutional traders/investors

 

Value Perception, if MSFT comes up with real AI, then nobody will want to sell below $100 say and the price will move straight to $100 on pretty much no volume, but the odd fool ofcourse.

 

1. Buyers and sellers.

2. Buyers and sellers.
