JDB, according to Yahoo! biz.yahoo.com VTSS has a PEG of 2.35 compared to the S&P500 which has a PEG of 3.60. But VTSS has a beta of 1.82 which makes the CNPEG2 equal to 1.19 -- slightly overpriced according to my criteria. I caution you that the raw numbers come from Yahoo!, and they may be incorrect.

I believe that the long term growth rate is higher than Yahoo! indicates. The robust nature of the telecommunications market is a telling issue as far as I'm concerned, so VTSS's overpricing according to my mechanical criterion isn't so important. I am happy to hold VTSS for the long term at these levels.

I haven't run a CNPEG2 screen on the stocks that I own lately, but one that seems to stand out is DELL, which has a PEG of around 1.69, so the CNPEG2 comes in at around 0.66.

I tend to buy stocks when the CNPEG2 values so indicate, and sell only when the long-term fundamentals have changed substantially for the worse. Only when a stock becomes really overheated (as in the case of CSCO) do I sell.
