Using Exhibits 1 and 2, the stock that would be the best addition to Fund D is:选项:
A.AQU. B.BRW. C.CSY.解释:
SolutionC is correct. Fund D follows the GARP (growth at a reasonable price) strategy, which seeks out companies with above-average growth that trade at reasonable valuation multiples. Many investors who use GARP rely on the P/E-to-growth (PEG) ratio.
AQU’s forward P/E is 36 ÷ 3.70 = 9.73, and its PEG ratio is 9.73 ÷ 9.50 = 1.02.
BRW’s forward P/E is 28 ÷ 2.75 = 10.18, and its PEG is 10.18 ÷ 12.0 = 0.85.
CSY’s forward P/E is 19 ÷ 1.95 = 9.74, and its PEG is 9.74 ÷ 11.25 = 0.87.
Although lower PEG ratios are preferred and BRW has a slightly lower PEG ratio than CSY, BRW’s EPS growth forecast of 12.00% is below the sector long-term growth forecast of 14.00% whereas CSY’s EPS growth forecast of 11.25% is above the sector long-term growth forecast of 10.00%. Given CSY’s combination of above-average growth and a reasonable valuation multiple, it would be the best addition to Fund D.
A is incorrect. AQU has the highest PEG ratio; lower PEG ratios are preferred.
B is incorrect. Although BRW has a slightly lower PEG ratio than CSY, BRW’s EPS growth forecast of 12.00% is below the sector long-term growth forecast of 14.00% whereas CSY’s EPS growth forecast of 11.25% is above the sector long-term growth forecast of 10.00%.
PEG不是越低越好吗?那应该选第二个呀?为什么选第三个?
