Valuation and PE ratio

Anybody can gift oneself with a multiyear supply of passive income by purchasing shares of a high-quality dividend-paying company. This time, consider the undervalued ones as real good deals.

The Price-to-Earnings (P/E) ratio is a key metric used in stock investment to evaluate a company's valuation. It compares a company's current share price to its earnings per share (EPS).

For example, if a company's stock is trading at $100 per share and its EPS is $5, the P/E ratio would be 20 ($100 / $5). This means investors are willing to pay $20 for every $1 of earnings.

Investors use the P/E ratio to compare the valuation of companies within the same industry or against the broader market. It helps in assessing whether a stock is overvalued or undervalued compared to its historical performance.

Dividend Play: Low-PE Stocks in SGX

A low P/E ratio might suggest that a stock is undervalued, meaning it could be a bargain. Investors might see this as an opportunity to buy shares at a lower price relative to the company's earnings. Meanwhile, stocks with low P/E ratios also translate into lower risk--they are less risky because they are priced lower relative to their earnings. This can provide a margin of safety, reducing the potential downside risk.
