TABLE 13.3 EFFECT OF ROE AND PLOWBACK ON GROWTH AND P/E RATIO

13.4 PRICE-EARNINGS RATIOS

The P/E ratio of any company that’s fairly priced will equal its growth rate. I’m talking here about growth rate of earnings…if the the P/E ratio of Coca-Cola is 15, you’d expect the company to be growing at about 15% per year, etc. But if the P/E ratio is less than the growth rate, you may have found yourself a bargain.
