US stocks passing Peter Lynch's PEG test

Peter Lynch ran Fidelity's Magellan fund from 1977 to 1990 and built one of the best records of any fund manager. His best-known yardstick is the PEG: a company's P/E ratio divided by its earnings growth rate. A PEG of 1 or less, he wrote, suggests the growth is not yet fully priced in. This list applies that test to US stocks.

The exact criteria

The PEG test is Peter Lynch's, published in One Up on Wall Street (1989). Some of it can't be read from prices and reported figures (the years of growth he measured, the balance sheet and the story behind the numbers), so the three checks below are the parts that can. The rest is yours to judge. It runs on US stocks priced at $5 or more and trading at least $1 million a day on average. The traders and investors behind these scans →

  1. 1.Profitable: a positive P/E ratio2,350 pass
  2. 2.Earnings up 15% to 50% on a year earlier: fast, but not unsustainably so509 pass
  3. 3.PEG of 1 or less: the P/E is no higher than the growth rate978 pass

Each count is that rule applied on its own to the same set of stocks, so you can see which one is doing the work. The list below is the names that pass all of them.

Where our read differs

Of the 100 names above, 18 are on our Established uptrends list: uptrends that have lasted, near their highs and not stretched above their 50-day average. A screen tells you a stock qualifies; it does not tell you whether the trend has proven itself or already run. That second question is the one we built the engine to answer.

Questions

What is the PEG ratio?

The price-to-earnings ratio divided by the earnings growth rate. A company on a P/E of 20 growing earnings 20% a year has a PEG of 1. Lynch treated a PEG below 1 as a sign the market hadn't caught up with the growth, and above 2 as a warning.

Which growth figure does this list use?

The latest quarter's earnings against the same quarter a year earlier, from company reports. Lynch looked at growth over several years, so check the longer record before relying on one quarter.

Why growth between 15% and 50%?

Lynch's favourite fast growers grew 20% to 25% a year, and he was wary of growth far above that, which rarely lasts. Very high growth also makes the PEG look cheap for the wrong reason.

When does the list update?

After every US close. The nightly run starts at around 5:30 pm ET.
