And when you do want to judge by share price - don't - if you want to use "the market" as an indicator you should actually be looking at market cap, not share price. ie Has the value of the company, as recognised by the market, increased?

Answer: Yes.


If however you want to judge the quality of your investing skills - I'd suggest a whole different set of indicators - including share price - and I'd suggest these judgements can and will change with "when" you measure them.
