ASX:CHZ PE PEG Gauge Feb 24th 18
More The metals and mining industry is trading at a PE ratio of 12.81x, in-line with the Australian stock market PE of 17.3x. This means the industry, on average, is fairly valued compared to the wider market – minimal expected gains and losses from mispricing here. Furthermore, the industry returned a similar 11.70% on equities compared to the market’s 11.37%. Since Chesser Resources’s earnings doesn’t seem to reflect its true value, its PE ratio isn’t very useful. A loose alternative to gauge Chesser Resources’s value is to assume the stock should be relatively in-line with its industry.
Next Steps: Chesser Resources has been a metals and mining industry laggard in the past year. If Chesser Resources has been on your watchlist for a while, now may be a good time to dig deeper into the stock. Although it delivered lower growth relative to its materials peers in the near term, the market may be pessimistic on the stock, leading to a potential undervaluation. However, before you make a decision on the stock, I suggest you look at Chesser Resources’s fundamentals in order to build a holistic investment thesis.
