Valuing Bluebird bio stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Bluebird bio's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Bluebird bio's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.32. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Bluebird bio's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

We're not expecting Bluebird bio to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Bluebird bio's shares were split on a 1:20 basis on 12 December 2024 . So if you had owned 20 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Bluebird bio shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 1900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Bluebird bio shares which in turn could have impacted Bluebird bio's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Bluebird bio's shares have ranged in value from as little as $5.8 up to $38.4. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Bluebird bio's is 0.803. This would suggest that Bluebird bio's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
