Is Nu stock undervalued or overvalued?

Valuing Nu stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Nu's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.

Nu's P/E ratio

Nu's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 711x. In other words, Nu shares trade at around 711x recent earnings.

That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.

However, Nu's P/E ratio is best considered in relation to those of others within the banks-diversified industry or those of similar companies.

• Citigroup (C.US): 6.48
• Wells Fargo-and-Company (WFC.US): 10.69
• Bank of America (BAC.US): 8.06
