PEG comparisons I was looking at First Call and their comparison of ECGOF to the industry averages ECGOF growth rate Last 5 Years 87% 1997 estimated 48% Industry Growth Rate: 12% Ratios Relative To: Company Industry Sector WSJ/DJ P/E on 1997 Cal Yr Mean 6.0 15.60 17.11 16.31 PEG on 1997 Cal Yr Mean - 1.32 1.78 1.40 I am not sure why they didn't calculate the PEG based on 97 earnings. With a P/E of 6 and growth of 48%, the PEG is 6/48 = 1/8 = .125 To have the average PEG of the industry ECGOF would need to trade at Average PEG * Growth * Earnings = 1.32 * 48 * $1.20 = $76 /share In other words, to be fairly valued with respect to other companies in the industry, the stock would need to trade at $76/share by the end of 1997. That number would be higher if they beat $1.20. So if it reaches $76/share before the end of 1997, then one might want to consider selling. <g> It seems rather obvious why the CEO is doing whatever he can to buy shares. David P.S. Looks like the Fool web page message boards are not the same as the AOL Fool message boards,
