Actual EPS and EPS Estimates vs. Stock Price Chart in Snapshot |
The chart
at the center of the Snapshot report plots the stock price versus the
12-month earnings per share. The chart includes fiscal year-end data
going back five years, quarter-end data for the last four and next two
quarters, and estimated earnings projected 1,2 and 3-5 years out. While
not intended for use as a technical analysis tool, the price chart provides
a visual representation of how the stock has been trading relative to
its past growth in earnings as well as how Wall Street perceives its
future earnings growth prospects.
