Market Ethos - Evaluating valuations

Share

One could certainly question the importance of valuations in this market. If you were bold enough to buy Nvidia a year ago, ignoring the 60x price-to-earnings (forward earnings), you made money. And look at Microsoft, which sits at 33x and continues to go up even though its forecast earnings growth is only about 15%. Or which pharmaceutical company would you like to own, the one trading at 50x earnings or 12x? Surprisingly, the right answer was the 50x Lily and not the 12x Pfizer. Sure, solving for a pandemic is nice, but solving for fat is much more lucrative.
