<< He also makes a big fuss about relative P/S ratios only to concede a little later that you can't compare these across industries. >>

Very annoying article. He compares the P/S ratio of the high margin pharma business with low margin businesses like Walmart and then declares that based on P/S the pharmas are a SELL. The people that stop reading at that point will have been mislead.

Then, later in the article he declares his original comparisons completely invalid.

No wonder the general public is so confused about valuations.
