14/F/Anaheim, Join Date: May 2008 | Some investors select stocks for investment by comparing price to earnings ratios. Financial news sources publish these ratios along with the information that they call a quote, which is the price of a share of stock. Different sources might have different numbers because they have different ways to calculate the earnings, but they are mostly very close to the same number for the same stock.
To select stocks based on price to earnings ratios, the first step is to find a list of competitors, for example credit card companies, such as Citibank, American Express, Bank of America, and JP Morgan Chase. Then buy the one with the lowest price to earnings ratio.
Then make another list of compeitors in another industry and do the same thing.
