Price to Earnings Ratio (p/e)

Understanding financial terms is essential for anyone interested in the world of business. One important concept is the price-to-earnings ratio, or P/E ratio. This is calculated by dividing a company's current stock price by its earnings per share over the past 12 months. But the P/E ratio is more than just a number - it reflects the market's perception of a company's potential and is a key indicator of investor sentiment.
