  2. Price–earnings ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Price–earnings_ratio

    The average U.S. equity P/E ratio from 1900 to 2005 is 14 (or 16, depending on whether the geometric mean or the arithmetic mean, respectively, is used to average). [ citation needed ] Jeremy Siegel has suggested that the average P/E ratio of about 15 [ 7 ] (or earnings yield of about 6.6%) arises due to the long-term returns for stocks of ...

  3. PEG ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PEG_ratio

    In general, the P/E ratio is higher for a company with a higher growth rate. Thus, using just the P/E ratio would make high-growth companies appear overvalued relative to others. It is assumed that by dividing the P/E ratio by the earnings growth rate, the resulting ratio is better for comparing companies with different growth rates. [1]

    The cyclically adjusted price-to-earnings ratio, commonly known as CAPE, [1] Shiller P/E, or P/E 10 ratio, [2] is a stock valuation measure usually applied to the US S&P 500 equity market. It is defined as price divided by the average of ten years of earnings ( moving average ), adjusted for inflation. [ 3 ]

  6. Percentage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentage

    In general, if an increase of x percent is followed by a decrease of x percent, and the initial amount was p, the final amount is p (1 + 0.01 x)(1 − 0.01 x) = p (1 − (0.01 x) 2); hence the net change is an overall decrease by x percent of x percent (the square of the original percent change when expressed as a decimal number).

  7. Péclet number - Wikipedia

    where k is the thermal conductivity, ρ the density, and c p the specific heat capacity. In engineering applications the Péclet number is often very large. In such situations, the dependency of the flow upon downstream locations is diminished, and variables in the flow tend to become "one-way" properties. Thus, when modelling certain ...
