[QUOTE="Catatonic, post: 1070852, member: 7966"] Good points: UPS has had a P/E ratio of 18% or higher for many years - it is currently ~22%. UPS is essentially a Utility type stock which means a P/E ratio of 12 -16% is more appropriate historically. The key to Utility stocks is that they pay good dividends - typically 4% - 6% yield. UPS pays around 3% and that has only been in recent years. Some years it has been closer to 2%. If you reduce the price of UPS stock to reflect a 16% P/E then the 3% yield is more in line with other Utility companies. [/QUOTE]
