Associated Banc Stock: A Deep Dive Into Analyst Perspectives (8 Ratings)

<p>In the current market session, <strong>Citigroup Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>)</strong> stock price is at $81.96, after a <strong>0.02%</strong> drop. However, over the past month, the company's stock spiked by <strong>15.46%</strong>, and in the past year, by <strong>51.51%</strong>.

<p>

<h3>Citigroup P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
<p>The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. </p>
<p>Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of <strong>12.46</strong> in the Banks industry, Citigroup Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of <strong>13.78</strong>. Shareholders might be inclined to think that Citigroup Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It's also possible that the stock is overvalued. </p>
<p>
</p><p><img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1737723608_1.png" alt="Guage" /></p>

<p>In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions. </p>
