    This does seem a bit dated. If you go by Peter Lynch's belief that corporate earnings grow 8% per year, the S&P500 would be valued at (8 + 2) / 20 = 0.5 = Very overvalued. Peter Lynch has always encouraged people to buy stocks as well, so in a market where everything is (comparatively) overvalued, finding stocks above 2 or 3 would be exceedingly difficult.

    Just an FYI for other investors, a lot of places will look at the formula in an inverse way-Price to earnings divided by growth+dividend yield. In such cases, a result of less than 1 may be undervalued and over 1 could be overvalued. You should always make sure you understand what the formula is *telling you* and do you own research.

    When you looked at the dividend yield for AT&T, it says "forward" dividend and yield. What does "forward" stand for? Does it mean it is the expectation for the future dividend yield? And also the "future" earnings per share growth.. Why is it that every factor that must be taken into account is about the future? Isn't it dangerous to make projections about the future? Isn't the past decade performance of the company a more reliable (but not perfect) indicator of how it may perform?

    Great question. Each valuation model is obviously different. They value a company different ways, whether it be based off EPS, free cash flow, dividends, and using comparables. The problem is that no valuation model accounts for every aspect of the business. For example DCF is a great model, but doesn't take into account how the market is valuing similar companies. And the Dividend discount model is great, but doesn't take into account current market conditions like Grahams valuation. So while Im a fan of each of these valuation models, no valuation model is perfect, which is why I use multiple to account for every aspect of the business and market conditions. Using multiple valuation methods also allows me to reduce the risk of errors in calculations. For example, if my growth rate projection for the dividend discount model is off, that would eba. big problem if it was the only valuation model I used. But because I use multiple valuations, the significance of that error is slightly reduced. Also important to apply a margin of safety! Hope that helps some!
