What do these metrics mean?
Forward P/E
What you're paying for next year's earnings. Shows if the stock is expensive or cheap based on where earnings are headed, not where they've been.

How to read it:
• Lower number = cheaper (or slower growth expected)
• Higher number = more expensive (or faster growth expected)
• Compare to Trailing P/E: Big drop = market expects earnings to jump

Example: Forward P/E of 30 means you pay $30 for every $1 the company will earn next year.
Value: <25 · Fair: 25-40 · Expensive: >40
PEG Ratio
Tells you if a high P/E is actually justified. Divides P/E by the growth rate.

How to read it:
• Below 1.0 = Cheap for the growth (steal)
• Around 1.0 = Fair value
• Above 2.0 = Expensive even considering growth

Example: Stock with P/E of 60 growing 60%/year = PEG of 1.0 (fair). Stock with P/E of 30 growing 10%/year = PEG of 3.0 (expensive).

Why it matters: Two stocks can both have P/E of 50, but one growing 100%/year is way cheaper than one growing 20%/year. PEG catches this.
Cheap: <1.0 · Fair: 1.0-2.0 · Expensive: >2.0
FCF Yield
The cash "interest rate" you're getting. Shows how much cash the company generates per dollar you invest.

How to read it:
• Above 5% = High cash generation, value stock
• 2-5% = Moderate
• Below 2% = Low yield, market paying for future growth not current cash

Example: 0.9% yield means for every $100 invested, company generates $0.90/year in cash. Market doesn't care about today's cash—betting on tomorrow's explosion.

Why it matters: When two stocks have the same low FCF yield (like 0.9%), market is pricing them for the same growth timing. If one is ramping NOW and they have identical yields, the other is probably ramping NOW too.
Price/Sales
What you pay for each dollar of revenue. Harder to manipulate than earnings.

How to read it:
• Compare within same industry (software vs hardware have different norms)
• When Price/Sales is similar between two stocks BUT P/E is very different = margin expansion story

Example: Two companies both trade at 15x sales. One has P/E of 60, other has P/E of 30. The first one's profit margins are expected to explode.

Why it matters: Catches the margin expansion story. Revenue is clean—can't fake it. If two stocks valued the same on revenue but different on earnings, someone's margins are about to change dramatically.
Market Cap
Total company value. How much it would cost to buy every share.

Why it matters for trading:
• Under $10B = Can move violently (higher risk/reward)
• $10-100B = Can still move big on earnings (sweet spot for explosive growth)
• Over $100B = Harder to move percentages but more stable

Example: $50B company moving 25% = $12.5B added. Possible but rare. $500B company moving 25% = $125B added. Much harder.
How they work together
Fwd P/E = Is it expensive?
PEG = Is that price justified by growth?
Price/Sales = Are profit margins about to explode?
FCF Yield = Is the catalyst NOW or later?
Market Cap = Can this actually move violently on news?
Data Sources & Limitations
• TTM fundamentals: SEC EDGAR XBRL filings (last 4 quarters)
• Forward estimates: Analyst consensus via Yahoo Finance
• Works for: U.S. public companies with standard GAAP accounting
• May not work for: Banks, REITs, insurance, foreign companies, recent IPOs

Forward P/E and PEG require analyst estimates. If unavailable (N/A), use TTM metrics only. Not financial advice - for informational purposes only.
