Introduction:
The P/E (Price to Earnings) ratio compares a company’s current stock price to its earnings per share (EPS), serving as a key metric for evaluating stock value. A lower P/E ratio suggests that a stock is undervalued relative to its earnings potential.
For value investors, a low P/E ratio is seen as an attractive indicator, pointing to potentially undervalued stocks. This metric helps investors assess whether a stock is priced fairly in the market, guiding them toward more informed investment choices in the equity market.
