[sharechat] P/E Ratios

From:	"Mike Beal" <mike.beal@amb.co.nz>
Date:	Wed, 11 Oct 2000 11:57:06 +1300

Back to the orginal query on why the published P/E's in the different newspapers and other sources often appear vastly different...David mentioned timing - why do they use different timing? I would have thought these p/e's were based on the past year's earnings? Is this not the case with some organisations?

Thanks.
