Thanks Bob Excellant post.... Ben Graham developed 14 basic points of investing...which he offered in his speaking and writing. #4 Was a Buy formula....to find a stock that was underpriced. The intrinsic value of a stock equals: E(2R+8.5)x4.4/Y E = earnings R = growth rate Y = current yield on AAA rated corporate bonds 8.5 = appropriate price-to-earnings multiple for a company with static growth 4.4% = was the average bond yield or the Y factor Note: 6.51% is the corporate bond yield today(15th)- Merrill Lynch index Wonder how many stocks can be found to fit that scale today.
