Jimmy,

Given the limitations of earnings estimates, do you think such figures are useful in trying to select a company to buy on this current dip in prices?

I'm not sure what you mean by the limitations of earnings estimates. That's because I don't know if you're referring to the inaccuracy of earnings estimates in general or if you're concerned that some of those companies may not yet have estimates published for FY2001. Also, I don't know what the growth component is used for Market Guide's calculations.

Regardless of the answers to all those questions, I do believe PEG ratios are worth looking at when making investment decisions. As my earlier post stated, they must be used in conjunction with many other aspects of evaluating a company and the price of its stock.

However, it is unwise to use a PEG ratio (or any ratio) as part of the analytical process without thoroughly understanding how it is calculated and without understanding the sources of the component data.
