All investing should be regarded as longer term. The value of your investments can go up and down, and you may get back less than you invest. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

Buying shares in just one company is generally considered a riskier bet than investing in a range of investments - AKA a "diversified portfolio". Experts generally recommend holding a mix of investments in specific assets and funds. Funds are ready-made portfolios of multiple companies' shares (potentially including Warner Bros. Discovery), and the idea is that drops in the value of one constituent company's share price might be offset by rises in others.
Warner Bros. Discovery is a major part of the NASDAQ, so it's included in many global funds and investment trusts, as well as tracker-style exchange traded funds (ETFs).

Valuing a stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge value. Check out the Warner Bros. Discovery P/E ratio, PEG ratio and EBITDA.
Warner Bros. Discovery's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.7859. Higher PEG ratios such as this can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value given the current rate of growth.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Warner Bros. Discovery's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
However, it's sensible to consider Warner Bros. Discovery's PEG ratio in relation to those of similar companies.
Warner Bros. Discovery's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is a whopping $7.4 billion (£5.6 billion).
