Case Studies
1. On Informed Decision-Making: “What is important is that by thoroughly analyzing the prospects for the company’s stock, and comparing the risk/reward ratio for the stock to that of other investment opportunities, you should be able to make consistently better investment decisions, and thereby improve your investment performance.”
2. On Market Anticipation: “This anticipation by the market is a key concept that investors must understand. Changes in P/E generally occur much faster than changes in earnings.”
3. On Stock Price and Expectations: “Often times, you will hear investors describe a stock’s response to the quarterly earnings report in terms of high or low expectations. A ‘low expectation stock’ is one that has been beaten up and now trades at a very low multiple.”
4. On Earnings Surprises: “Note that the upside or downside from an earnings surprise is more significant for debt-laden companies. In other words, a highly leveraged company that beats consensus estimates will likely see their stock go up significantly.”
5. On Stock Valuation: “The P/E, not the actual price, determines when a stock is ‘high’ or ‘low’.”
6. On Capital Intensity: “Capital intensive means that a large portion of the company’s costs are for capital equipment; that is, the company is dependent on a lot of expensive machinery or equipment.”
