NPV vs IRR - bingo, well said ... i've tried to express this but didn't have the words, don't have a fine grasp of the calculations involved either ... one way i've thought of it is, NPV means value today, while IRR may or may not mean value in the future

One must look at both I think. A large NPV with a 5% IRR is a nogo. Where at 12-15% it becomes interesting.

Of course, assuming a reasonable IRR, say 12% and up, then it is the NPV/Market cap relation that becomes the key indicator of future performance.
