RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Too many sharesSix pack fellow maybe this will sober you up, try itn essence, the price-to-earnings ratio indicates the dollar amount an investor can expect to invest in a company in order to receive one dollar of that company’s earnings. This is why the P/E is sometimes referred to as the price multiple because it shows how much investors are willing to pay per dollar of earnings. If a company was currently trading at a P/E multiple of 20x, the interpretation is that an investor is willing to pay $20 for $1 of current earnings.
