      Agreed.... I just watched a tonne of vids on this PE explanation and although I'm slowly getting it, this one was by far the best - he broke it down slowly and very easy to understand plus he gave much better examples than a lot of these American vids that speak so quickly.

    sagarsingh1234 - thanks and glad the video helps. I find so much rubbish is spoken about p/e ratios (just the other day two very respected newspapers got it wrong) that I had to post this video. My background as a chartered accountant with 10 years of running financial markets training courses plus 5 years in financial journalism means I am more likely to get it right than many other commentators. Hope you enjoy my other videos.

    I find I follow the most on your videos when you explain it asking the questions I as an investor should ask. That's what makes it click for me. Other videos do not explain it from the side that my mindset should be thinking... Kudos to an approach that works for me!

    Although this is probably 8 years too late looking at the Tesco price this morning the answer to your question is yes. You definitely want to have bought the share price at £4.20! Great videos by the way, I just about watched all of them.

    bloomerstom - a low p/e can indeed indicate trouble, rather than a bargain. It all depends what the other ratios tell you alongside the p/e. For example a low p/e might reflect the market pricing the shares down knowing a firm is carrying a lot of risk (e.g. debt). Some analysts therefore prefer to use Enterprise Value (see video!) multiples rather than purely share price based.

    amdismat1 - the earnings figure (either an estimated forward number or a historic one) won't change very often. However the share price changes daily, as does the reported p/e ratio. EPS is published for the previous financial year at the foot of the profit and loss account. Cheers, Tim.

    Hi I have a question,
    So a low p/e ratio could suggest a bargain but there could also be underlying problems that explain the low p/e ratio. Could you explain if p/e ratio = (price per share/ earnings per share), how would bad news or risk be accounted into either of these two factors, thus causing the p/e to be cheaper? have I misinterpreted this?

  • @filthychav776
    @filthychav776 Рік тому +1

    But, but, but... earnings per share don't equal dividends. It's possible, isn't it, that a company could have a great p to e ratio and still not issue decent dividends and that after 5 years of holding onto the shares the share price could be roughly what you paid for it? So, aren't there better indicators to look at before deciding to buy into a particular company?
    Please forgive my naivety - I'm pretty new to all this.

  • @JjJj-hw4rf
    @JjJj-hw4rf 9 років тому +2

    I still have the below misunderstanding:
    For stock#1211, the PE ratio is over 200. Now stock market price of #1211 is HKD48.2. From your video, it means that we need to wait for 200 years to get the money back.
    For stock#175, PE ratio is 19. Now stock market price of #175 is HKD4.02. From your video, it means that we need to wait for 19 years to get the money back.
    For stock#857, PE ratio is 12. Now stock market price of #857 is HKD9.55. From your video, it means that we need to wait for 12 years to get the money back.
    Question: 1/
    From the above stock#1211, 175, 857, which one is worth to buy?
    From your video, high PE ratio means that it is expensive share and we should avoid buying it. Stock#1211 is the most expensive one, should we avoid buying it?
    Question : 2/
    From your video, low PE ratio means that it is low future growth rate. Does it mean it is not worth to buy?
    I am confused for buying shares in PE ratio, please fix it, thanks.

    • @03005603130
      @03005603130 7 років тому +1

      It means that investors are willing to invest 200 pounds to earn 1 pound of earning & at the same time, they are expecting a dramatic increase in the earnings of the company in the upcoming years which means they will recover their money faster in the later years. Higher PE ratio shows the level of trust of the shareholders on a particular company. Consequently, a company with PE ratio of 200 is a growth company & investors are dreaming to get paid higher earnings in the future.
