I see a lot of YouTubers treating stock-based compensation as a "non-cash" item they can disregard, but it's essentially a company paying its employees with shareholder money; if they used money from selling shares to cover salaries, you'd see just how real of an expense it is

One of the best debates I have seen in recent history between @SunilBSinghania and Saurabh Mukherjea.

TOPIC: Has P/E lost its relevance?

I resonate more with Sunil’s side. Here’s a thread 🧵 on the main points made by him:

@varinder_bansal @safiranand @myvaluepicks

1/ Importance of PE

PE is not the only factor but an important factor.

Ultimately the growth has to justify how much PE are you paying for the company.

There cannot be an unlimited PE multiple based on some xyz parameters.

2/ Hindsight Bias:

In hindsight we can say that from 2001 to 2021, a company grew at 25 % and we should have given a very high PE to it.

But on the day when you buy, you don’t know that the company is going to grow at 25% for the next 20 years.

3/ Millennial preference:

Things have become more competitive.

New generation don’t really care much about legacy.

Convenience and affordability matters more.

The longevity and sustainability of growth has changed dramatically.

4/ Company that require a big investment - There is opportunity to invest big.

Company 1: Mkt Cap of 50 cr
Company 2: Mkt cap of 1 lakh cr

50c r company can become 3x, 1 lakh cr company cannot become 2x.

On absolute basis you end up making 5 cr vs 5k cr in 1lakh cr company.

@unseenvalue #Screened few businesses trading at single digit MCap/CFO.

I made a mistake in above list.
Apologies ! It is accidental discovery of businesses trading at single digit MCap / Cash End of Last Year.

🌟Here is businesses #screened for MCap/CFO.

@10kdiver Ah thank you. Yeah so strange! Maybe Twitter just hates me.

1⃣

Price to Earnings (#PE) ratio, also known as price multiple or earnings multiple is the ratio obtained by dividing the current share price by earnings per share (#EPS).

#StockMarket #Investing #FundamentalAnalysis

2⃣

P/E ratio is a reflection of the market's opinion of the earnings capacity & future business prospects of a company.

Companies which enjoy high investor confidence & have a higher market standing usually command high P/E ratio.

3⃣

On the face, it would seem that companies with low P/E ratios would offer most attractive investment opportunities. This is not always true.

Companies with high current earnings but dim future prospects often have low P/E ratio.

4⃣

As an #investor your primary concern is with future prospects of a company & not so much with its present performance.

This is why companies with low current earnings but bright future prospects usually command high P/E ratio.
