"What is a PEG ratio. If the earnings growth of a FMCG company is X% and if it is trading at XX PE the PEG ratio is XX X which XX. PEG ratio less than X is considered undervalued. PEG ratio equal to X is fairly valued. PEG ratio more than X is overvalued. This is in theory. At times it may be difficult to buy a good opportunity say below X PEG. But this is a good yardstick. Indian stock market PEG is X abnormally high. Again please note that my caution doesn't mean markets would necessarily fall. It can remain range bound for some years till PEG becomes normal. Earnings growth can catch up"

""If you buy at XX which is the average PE you'll get the average return which is XX. If you buy at a PE of XX which is high you get two to minus two which is low. If you buy at eight which is low you might get a return of 15-20 which is high. The higher the price you pay the lower you return makes sense. But of course if you're a real long term holder and indifferent you just strap yourself in and you hold for the long run and you hope once you get past your period of overpricing and underperformance that you regress toward XX. But if you bought in 2000 which I mentioned I think you made no"

""You dont need $XX million but cash in the bank will be the best friend youve ever had when stocks fall.

"I'll give you another example. I'm not going to name the stock. This company is having phenomenally high growth rate in revenue and profits. It has provided humongous returns post covid. Based on information available in public domain there is nothing fraudulent about this company. It is highly rated by many institutions. The growth was so good that the PE went as high as XXX few years ago. The growth rate still continues to be good but PE has been drastically down to XX. I couldn't find anything negative about the company. I could see many positive views about the company from it's clients."

"A follower shared this article. Look at the parent companies revenue and their marketcap. Look at the revenue of subsidiaries and their marketcap. To justify current valuations earnings growth has to be substantially high. See the German multinational Schaeffler. For a revenue of Rs.189501 crores the marketcap is Rs.57461 crores. For it's Indian subsidiary with a revenue of mere Rs.8351 crores the marketcap is higher than parent at Rs.67007 crores. This is my personal view based on lot of reading.

"You know once ITC was my favourite stock. It was a good opportunity for me because the valuations became so cheap with a high dividend yield. ITC's earnings have grown at X% over last one decade. The stock price too has grown at X% over the same period. Earnings growth absolutely matters. In the period I bought investors were able to double their money in X years because valuations were abysmally low. Entry valuations and earnings growth decide your potential upside. Last X years earnings growth of ITC is 5%. Don't just look at price. Look at valuations earnings growth PEG return on equity"

At right valuations backed by earnings growth even these companies can again become a good buy. The number one FMCG company in India is Hindustan Unilever.

PEG is nothing but PE divided by earnings growth rate. So XX X is XXX A PEG of XXX though lesser than XXX is still very high. The problem is not with PE. XX PE is not too high.

"Any investment strategy that is based upon buying well-run good companies and expecting the growth in earnings in these companies to carry prices higher is dangerous since it ignores the possibility that the current price of the company already reflects the quality of the management and the firm. If the current price is right (and the market is paying a premium for quality) the biggest danger is that the firm loses its luster over time and that the premium paid will dissipate. If the market is exaggerating the value of the firm this strategy can lead to poor returns even if the firm delivers"
