    • To analyse a stock we use financial metrics. 

Some of the  metrics used in stock market are

  • P/E Ratio (Price to Earnings)
    • What you pay for every $1 of company profit.
    • Stock price/Earnings per share i.e 10/1= 10
    • High P/e ration means stock is overvalued.

  • EPS (Earnings per share)
    • Profit divided by the number of shares
    • Profit/shares

  • Divided Yield
    • The yearly cash payout as a percentage of the price
    • Yearly payout/Price.
