What is P/E Ratio? The Price-to-Earnings ratio compares a company's stock price to its earnings per share (EPS). It tells you how much investors are willing to pay for each dollar of earnings. A high P/E may indicate high growth expectations, while a low P/E may suggest undervaluation or declining prospects.
How to use this table: Compare a stock's P/E ratio to its sector average to gauge relative valuation. Keep in mind that P/E ratios vary widely by industry — technology companies typically trade at higher multiples than utilities or banks. Always compare within the same sector.
