Because CVS Health's market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect CVS Health's underlying business (such as a pandemic or basic market pessimism), market value can vary widely from intrinsic value.

Please note, there is a significant difference between CVS Health's value and its price as these two are different measures arrived at by different means. Investors typically determine if CVS Health is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections. However, CVS Health's price is the amount at which it trades on the open market and represents the number that a seller and buyer find agreeable to each party.
