Why is the PE ratio, the most popular investing term for investors, totally worthless? What is the price-earnings-ratio and why do professional investors laugh when they hear it?
I’ve worked as an equity analyst for a decade and can tell you, the biggest lie on Wall Street is the PE ratio. The pundits in the financial media love it but it is a horrible measure for picking stocks. Use it and LOSE money!
In this video, I’ll reveal three reasons why the PE ratio is a bad measure of a stock’s value. I’ll show you how to find the price-to-earnings ratio, if you still want to use it. I’ll also show you three other stock picking techniques that work better.

I’ll start off defining the PE ratio and showing you how to calculate it. I’ll then reveal what the PE ratio means and show you what is a good PE ratio. Then I’m going to blow your mind by revealing what is tragically wrong with the price-to-earnings measure for stocks and three valuation tools to use instead.
