@Coiler. You registered in November last year and you could not figure out how to participate in discussions until today!

I don't have these shares and after thinking twice i dont see why i should get them at this particular moment.

Any way,what is it that you have just learnt about these two companies which you could probably share with us. Otherwise i will assme you were practising how to post a new topic.

Luxel,

Both stocks have lower P/E ratio of 9.92 and 18.61 respectively.
The P/E ratio (price-to-earnings ratio) of a stock(also called its 'P/E','PER','earnings multiple,' or simply 'multiple') is a measure of the price paid for a share relative to the annual net income or profit earned by the firm per share.[2] It is a financial ratio used for valuation: a higher P/E ratio means that investors are paying more for each unit of net income,so the stock is more expensive compared to one with lower P/E ratio. The P/E ratio has units of years,[note 1] which can be interpreted as 'number of years of earnings to pay back purchase price',ignoring the time value of money. In other words,P/E ratio shows current investor demand for a company share. The reciprocal of the PE ratio is known as the earnings yield.[3] The earnings yield is an estimate of expected return to be earned from holding the stock if we accept certain restrictive assumptions.
I bet you dint know the what P/E measures or what it indicates or what it tell you.Companies with high P/E ratios are more likely to be considered 'risky' investments than those with low P/E ratios,since a high P/E ratio signifies high expectations.

@coiler.......you have just defined P/E ratio courtesy of copy / paste from wiki. This does not answer luxel question......nini unajua hatujui?

Ama you have just learn't in your 2nd year finance class what P/E ratio is and decinded to come and tell us that you have at last known what the term means????

If you have money that you expect to start using in five years,it now belongs in stocks.
When I have money, I get rid of it quickly, lest it find a way into my heart.

from my own research and subsequent NSE experience of over 7 years, high P/E stocks tend to engage in short rallies due to the belief by public that they are set to announce higher profitability in coming year(s). however, i have used P/E in conjuction wit charting, EPS and dividend policy, hence my study may not be truly empirical
