Stable growth model (Exp Cash flow next period/k-g)
Prerequisites to use DDM
predictability
well-established div policy
pays most of EPS.
Growth rate features
g cannot be higher than the growth rate of the economy, it can be negative
small changes of it can change the valuation significantly.
High growth companies
