Alternative ways to invest in Bloomsbury Publishing
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 Bloomsbury Publishing), and the idea is that drops in the value of one constituent company's share price might be offset by rises in others.
Bloomsbury Publishing is a major part of the London stock exchange, so it's included in many global funds and investment trusts, as well as tracker-style exchange traded funds (ETFs).

Is Bloomsbury Publishing 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 Bloomsbury Publishing P/E ratio, PEG ratio and EBITDA.
Bloomsbury Publishing's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 17x. In other words, Bloomsbury Publishing's shares trade at around 17x recent earnings.
That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the United Kingdom stock market as of 09 November, 2023 (10). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.
Bloomsbury Publishing's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is £49.3 million (£0 billion).
The EBITDA is a measure of Bloomsbury Publishing's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.
