Alternative ways to invest in Credit Suisse

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 Credit Suisse), and the idea is that drops in the value of one constituent company's share price might be offset by rises in others.

Credit Suisse is a major part of the NYSE, so it's included in many global funds and investment trusts, as well as tracker-style exchange traded funds (ETFs).

Is Credit Suisse under- or over-valued?

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 Credit Suisse P/E ratio, PEG ratio and EBITDA.

Credit Suisse's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.8914. 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 Credit Suisse's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
