How to tell PE, PB and PS?
We all know it is important to select a good company worth investing in, but is that all?
Sometimes we may find that when we buy the shares of a good company, it does not come with a fair price.
Cici has received some questions from our mooers asking the way to figure out a fair price. And my answer is: stock valuation.
The most important indicators in valuation are:
1. Price-to-Earnings(PE)
2. Price-to-Book(PB)
3. Price-to-Sales(PS)
PE ratio tells how much investors are willing to pay for every dollar of a company's profits.
For companies with unstable earnings, we can take PB ratio to evaluate how much investors are willing to pay for each dollar of a company's assets.
PS ratio is mainly used to evaluate fast-growing companies that have not yet made profits.
A more detailed summary is shown in the picture below:
For different companies, we can use different indicators for valuation. If you want to know more about valuation indicators, click the video link below and get a detailed interpretation!

Moomoo Learn : Static PE、Dynamic PE and the TTM,which indicator we use more frequently?
Winning Trades : MooMoo Quotes uses acronyms P/E (TTM) and P/E LYR. Is Static PE = P/E LYR?
For Sg market, unlike for US stocks, sadly don't have Financial ESTIMATES under Analysis-tab, I hope you can feedback to provide this for Sg stocks too. So that we can calculate Forward PE which I think you call Dynamic PE.
Forward/Dynamic PE is most relevant but currently I need to hunt around for Sg brokers' reports for their estimates. They don't cover all stocks, so it may not even exist. Then, falling back on P/E (TTM) is better than nothing.
Invest With Cici OP Winning Trades : In Detailed Quotes, we can see P/E TTM and P/E LYR, and LYR means Last Year Ratio, which is the same as the static PE ratio. So Static PE = P/E LYR is right~
For the second question, Cici has recorded it! Thank you for your feedback.We will continue to iteratively optimize moomoo's functions to bring a better experience to our mooers~
