Is Mondelez International under- or over-valued?
Valuing Mondelez International stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Mondelez International's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.

The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Mondelez International's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
