Is Hubbell stock undervalued or overvalued?

That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.

In Hubbell's case, that would currently equate to about $4.88 per share.

While Hubbell's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Hubbell may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.

However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Hubbell shares which in turn could have impacted Hubbell's share price.
