Alternative ways to invest in Intel Corporation

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

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

Is Intel Corporation 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 Intel Corporation P/E ratio, PEG ratio and EBITDA.

Intel 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 92x. In other words, Intel Corporation's shares trade at around 92x recent earnings.

That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the United States stock markets on average as of November 09, 2023 (20.44). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.

However, Intel Corporation's P/E ratio is best considered in relation to those of others within the industry or those of similar companies.

Intel Corporation's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.5385. A PEG ratio below 1 can be interpreted as meaning the shares are not overvalued 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 Intel 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.

However, it's sensible to consider Intel Corporation's PEG ratio in relation to those of similar companies.

Intel Corporation's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is a whopping $10.6 billion (£8.4 billion).

The EBITDA is a measure of Intel Corporation's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

To put that into context you can compare it against similar companies.
