Oh, pshaw. You have so.

It should be obvious that even in a perfectly efficient market, there will always be some relative form of value. Under ideal conditions where all information is priced accurately, low multiples would be a proxy for risk, since high prospective returns would only be offered in return for assuming a position that carried high risks.

In real life, value reflects the judgement that the market has not struck the perfect balance between risk and reward in a given price.
