I don't trust a PE of 1.1 for a world class company for sure. I found yahoo to be a good source for US companies but a poor source for foreign ones. Sometimes the US ADR information is correct and the information for the foreign ticker of the same company is wrong. Bloomberg, MS money and FT are best for foreign company information followed by google/finance and last yahoo. ,based on my experience. FWIW, with British companies, yahoo does not understand the difference between pound and pence, you can check this yourself; the PE's and other metrics for all companies are off by a factor 100. This has been going on for years...
