Choose These Price-to-Book Stocks for Higher Returns
Given the recent run-up in stocks, value analysis, is becoming more and more important. In value stock analysis, most investors use the P/E ratio to search for lucrative stocks but there are other ratios that an investor can consider like the price-to-sales ratio (P/S) and price-to-book (P/B) ratio. The P/S ratio is simply price divided by sales. One of the reasons P/S ratio is a better choice is because it looks at sales rather than earnings like P/E ratio does. However, P/B ratio, though used less often, is also an easy-to-use valuation tool for identifying low-priced stocks with great returns.
The P/B ratio is calculated as below:
P/B ratio = market capitalization/book value of equity
