You want to check if GRBH stock is fairly priced in the markets by using the fundamental analysis. For this purpose, you have gathered the following information:
GRBH pays dividends once a year and the next dividend payment is expected to be made in one year. You project the EPS of the first and second year to be $5 and $7 respectively. The company dividend payout ratio is stable at 0.2. At the end of the second year, you assume that the company would become the average company in the industry. The industry average PE ratio is 8. You believe that the appropriate required rate of return on GRBH stock is 10% (CCR per annum).
And the current market price of GRBH stock is $45.
ind the present value of GRBH stock based on the information above. Is the stock over- or under-priced?

If you obtain such data on a large portfolio of stocks, like those in the S&P 500, find the rate of return on each stock, and then average those returns, this would give you an idea of stock market returns for the year in question. true/falsearrow_forward

- If you look at stock prices over any year, you will find a high and low stock price for the year. Instead of a single benchmark PE ratio, we now have a high and low PE ratio for each year.
