DGIV VS. THE OTHER PLAYERS: HOW WE STACK UP
Everyone, I just compiled these comparisons of other companies in the same business niche as DGIV. These numbers are compiled from www.briefing.com, "company reports". I was particularly interested in their financials, so I added up the Quarterly earnings per share numbers and created a new column called P/E (see below). The only number I changed is the current price...I updated that to the close on Friday, April 17.
Guess what? DGIV is the ONLY company with a positive PE...have a look... pretty interesting.
