How Can You Tell a Stock is Overvalued? This article originally appeared on Traders Reserve . A lot of companies have posted stellar earnings during the past year, and many continue to gain market share. These stocks have justifiably seen a surge in share price, e.g., Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL ). But others just seem to be along for the bullish ride and may have run up a little too far in front of their earnings potential. One way to measure whether a stock is overvalued is to look at the price-to-earnings-to-growth ratio, or PEG ratio. A stock that is considered fairly valued will have a PEG ratio of 1, which simply means the price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio equals the estimated earnings growth. Traditionally, a PEG ratio over 1 means the stock is overbought. The five stocks on this list can be considered overvalued based on their high PEG ratios, and also because each has seen a big surge in value during the past year and could be due for a pullback. If you own them, you should think about taking your profits off the table by selling these overvalued stocks now.
