Why Some Stocks are Cheap & Others Expensive

Re. return on assets is irrelevant in cases where booked assets are not the driver of profitability. Then reinvesting into new assets does not grow your revenue. If you are a software company like e.g. Adobe, your profitability comes from your customer base and has little to do with how many office buildings you own.

This is true, but only because we're really bad at calculating "intellectual property" assets in the digital age. A factory is much easier to price than a suite of infinitely replicable exclusive software.

[@tomislavpavicic77]

Regarding the stock market value, I would also say that the most important thing is - Future Growth, BUT the Future Growth is based on analyses from different institutions and they are based on some presumptions. In a world where banks collapse, inflation is high, and FED is pumping up the interest rates - and all these events are happening IN A SHORT TIME, there is a high chance that presumptions from analyses are wrong, because the things now are too chaotic to make any rational presumption. Therefore, it is very hard to be smart in 2023.

Damn, never thought that P/E Ratio could be so powerful!

[@michaelgielkens4164]

If a company can grow earnings at more than 35% CAGR, then you of course shouldn't look at historical PE! It depends what you pay for the earnings 2 or 3 years out. Growth and value are joined at the hip, growth is an integral part of value, so why would you look at an optically high multiple of earnings on a LTM basis when it could be quite reasonable on a forward basis?

[@MobtacticsBruh]

Do you know the KZbin channel "Financial Wisdom" is very similar to yours?

[@ciaoatutti11111111]

I may have misunderstood here when looking at financial you touched on quite some value based metrics... If you looked at timespan of years should you not have had better p/e estimate in line with (current value based) Warren success? Lastly I am sure you heard of acquirers multiple.. Any comment on whether this would be more viable option to spot unfair valued companies?

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

Hey E. C.! Do you mean using some other metric than P/E for creating these statistics? I looked at aquierer's mutiple and a few other versions of P/E too but in my analysis at least, P/E created the greatest discrepancies, so I decided to use that. But for the record, I always look at some sort of EV/EBIT in addition to P/E before buying any companies myself.

[@ciaoatutti11111111]

I need to go through your video again.. I understood that having a good p/e was your metric to verify the stock was "good", but indeed I may have completely misunderstood your point in partucual for high earning conpanies. I taught you were interested in finding what factor (like roic) could have led to a better estimate of the future price of the company so that it was possible to spot undervalued companies. The comment I did was if you use as filter value parameters I would expect on the long run to find good future price companies as classic value theory suggest, from your analysis companies with good ROIC (to mention one) are not given to outperform conpanies with bad ROIC, even on 10 year period. But again you have not looked into future price only as target so is likely I have missed the point. Considering acquire multiple, for me that was another lens you could have looked at instead of financial parameter or geographical region... To spot undervalued companies

I was considering market cap too, and my assumption was bigger = more expensive. It turned out to be true. But then I thought that the data would be too biased to really be interesting enough to be included. Since it's the P in the equation it gets a little tricky I think.

[@ominollo]

@@TheSwedishInvestor yeah it is more difficult (for example there are few projections or analyses) but I believe middle and low caps represent the most interesting names for small investors.

[@gelex911]

Nice analysis, but if you sum the number of companies in the specific column, the result is most of times way below 5000. Moreover the analysis on Pakistan is based on 14 companies.....

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

Hey gelex911! It's 5000+ until we get to EPS growth. The first EPS growth table that you see is only based on companies that had a 5y projection among analysts (this was around 1500 if I remember correctly). From there onwards in the video, the anaysis if based on companies that had ANY type of EPS growth estimates (1,2,3,4 projections included too) and then it was around 4000 companies. The top list of companies that you see in the end is based on that number, around 4000. Yes, one has to be careful about Pakistan, but it actually proved to be statistically significantly different from the rest of the pack, even with so few companies, thanks to the fact that there was very little variance there.

pls show at the least the variances and Rsq to all these analysis, so we can check how meaningful the numbers are, otherwise, the numbers really dont tell us anything. it is just illusory explanations.

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

It's a great point pjc_deleon. I assumed that most people are not statisticians and more interested in the actual results and that adding too much emphasis on such things would only confuse/bore. But I'll give you some numbers here. For the OLS, when all 8 variables were consider (country and industry are categorical variables, so essientially many more), and for 4373 observations (I excluded about 1000 companies from the first group that didn't have analysts' forecasts): Mean of Dep Var: 19.7 RMSE: 10.8 SSR: 504444 TSS: 1002214 Rsq: 0.5 F stat: 92.8 None of the individual variables have p-vale >0.05 and I tried optimizing the number of variables included using AIC. Hope this helps!

[@pjc_deleon7290]

Hi swedish investor, i understand most people arent interested in the stats, i also frequently have to explain stats to layman in my job regularly. I suggest showing it in graphs or charts as raw tables wont do it. strong correlations usually show tight dispersions. I was actually very interested if there was a solid result coming from the analysis, which can serve as basis for solid investing action plan. results that can allow investors more trust to "stick to it" . however based on the info you showed with 0.5Rsq, assuming the 8 variables were joint OLS, you should have concluded that the 8 factors jointly were only moderately correlated at best. (p-value doesnt count as this not a random process, and American Statistical Association has for a long time now dissuaded its use as misleading) No "result" can be concluded from the data about Mr. Market even on a "somewhat right" basis. I think its better if you scope down the analysis to a per country basis and on a multi year basis (and also show the dispersions so people know how erratic mr. market can be) . that way you can make series of videos and at the same time get a more meaningful conclusions. cheers! P.S. i regularly watch and re watch your videos!

[@georgeclowney1133]

​@@TheSwedishInvestor I would really appreciate statistics aswell. If you could, make seperate videoes just more indepth with statistics as an extension of your previous videoes, I would really appreciate that.

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

Cheers for the feedback pjc_deleon. I do not agree with the conclusion that "no result can be concluded from the data about Mr. Market even on a somewhat right basis" though. If you take a table like the one from 09:15 in the video, you need no more statistics to conclude that estimated future EPS growth has a strong influence on P/E, at least not in my opinion. Things wouldn't line up perfectly like that otherwise, it just won't happen. You'd need some insane variance in P/E for it, and even then, it would be a freak occurrence. That goes for many of the other tables as well, but the strongest argument can be made about this one. If the r2 would have been 1.0, the 8 variables that I found would have perfectly explained the variance in P/E, which, since there are many "softer" variables and probably some mathematical ones that I haven't found yet, just isn't in the realm of possibilities. Moreover, since I assume that Mr. Market isn't fully rational (I'm not a fan of any hard form of EMH), I'd assume that, even if you find all of the perfect variables and were able to express them in an OLS, you still wouldn't get to 1.0. But I'd be curious to hear what you think a minimum r2 would be to be on a "somewhat right basis". Unfortunately, stock picking isn't a science like medicine or physics, a somewhat right basis is oftentimes the best we can hope for :)
