Question

What is the difference between (Fair Market Price) and (Current Market Price)?

I struggle to understand how both relate to the (Required Rate of Return) and (Expected Rate of Return). Please correct me if I am wrong, my understanding is that if Fair Market Price is greater than the Current Market Price on security/stock, then I should buy more. In contrast, I have to sell when it's vice versa. I would appreciate it if you could illustrate with examples, i.e., numbers.
