Overview

Price vs Fundamental

A line for the selected fundamental is rendered in the same chart as ticker’s price. Both lines begin at the same point so you can see how the fundamental value varies over time relative to the price. The area under the fundamental line is shaded. Optionally, a simple moving average of the price can be included.

Football Field

The Football Field chart is designed to show you how the current value for nine key valuation metrics in a company compares to their historical values.

The historical values are split into quintiles. They are also color coded to show you the meaning of the valuation region for each quintile. Green regions are considered lower valuation or “cheap” vs. historical values. Red regions are considered high valuation or “expensive” vs. historical values. The middle quintile is grey, indicating a region of average historical valuation.

By default, the period considered for the historical range of values is five years, but that can be changed by the date control on the bottom of the chart. The minimum value is one year and the maximum value is from January of 2007 until now.

The Football Field Valuation Chart shows nine key valuation metrics:

  • Price to Earnings
  • EV/EBITDA
  • Price to Book
  • Price to Sales
  • Price to Cash Flow
  • Price to Free Cash Flow
  • Dividend Yield
  • Dividend Coverage
  • Price

The Football field provides powerful visual presentation of valuation data. You can see below looking at Apple (AAPL) current valuation metrics (blue vertical line) vs. its five year range.
