PER

Short for Price-to-Earnings Ratio. A P/E of 20x means the market is pricing the stock at 20 years of its current earnings. Within the same industry, a higher P/E usually signals the market expects faster future profit growth. A forward P/E built on earnings that haven't happened yet, though, can become meaningless if that growth assumption turns out wrong.
