Valuing Capital One Financial Corporation stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Capital One Financial Corporation's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Capital One Financial Corporation's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 18x. In other words, Capital One Financial Corporation shares trade at around 18x recent earnings.
That's relatively low compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're under-valued.
Capital One Financial Corporation's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.0109. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Capital One Financial Corporation's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Capital One Financial Corporation's shares were split on a 3:1 basis on 1 June 1999 . So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 3 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Capital One Financial Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 66.7% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Capital One Financial Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Capital One Financial Corporation's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Capital One Financial Corporation's shares have ranged in value from as little as $103.7142 up to $197.6587. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
