Introduction:
The Price-to-Book (P/B) ratio is a financial metric used to evaluate a company’s market value compared to its book value. It is calculated by dividing the current market price of a stock by its book value per share. A P/B value below 1 suggests that a company’s stock is potentially undervalued, as its market price is lower than the value of its net assets.
Power sector stocks with a P/B ratio under 1 can be particularly attractive for value-focused investors. These stocks not only represent fundamental undervaluation but also operate in a sector poised for long-term growth, driven by rising energy demands and infrastructure development.
