Investors often use the price earnings, or P/E ratio, as a way to gauge the relative value of a stock in relation to its peers. It is the market price of a share of stock relative to its earnings per share. “The more positive investors feel about a stock’s future prospects, or the less risk they feel the stock has, the higher the stock’s P/E ratio” (Keown, 2019, p. 415).
Other investors view a low P/E as a ‘value,’ meaning the price paid for the stock is less relative to the earnings generated by the firm itself.
Select four stocks of your choice that are diversified across four different sectors or industries.
In your initial post, label your selected stock as “choice,” the competitor stock as “peer,” the industry information as “industry,” and list the P/E ratio for each of these categories.
