Q

What does PEG ratio tell us?

A

Used to determine if the stock’s P/E ratio is keeping pace with the firm’s growth rate in earnings.

A PEG rate equal to 1 suggests that the stock is fairly valued bc P/E ratio is in line with earnings growth rate.

A PEG ratio greater than 1 suggests the stock is fully valued (or over valued) bc an expanding P/E ratio is contributing to the stock price appreciating more than the growth rate.
