    Some would say that lawyers and accountants have no ideas about anything

    It is funny, I went through a phase of voting against all lawyers and accountants on any board on which I was eligible to vote as a matter of principle. That isn't because I held a grudge against lawyers and accountants. It is because I thought there should have been more diversity of occupations across any board, and some of these company boards had only lawyers and accountants!

    Briscoes forward PE if they make forecast is 18.3 Hmmm

    not a high P/E thought in this market ? Not low and a lot higher than HLG ...

    HLG hit hard for being in AUS.

    Briscoes might be seen as the safer business and why a higher P/E.

    Its an interesting one. 18 times forward earnings is right at the very top end for Briscoes historically and for the retail sector.
    Market is saying there is no risk of us yoyoing in and out of lockdown. How realistic is the market's assessment of that risk as far as Briscoes are concerned ? https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/covid-...LAGEBAYTIEPKE/
    On the other hand risk appears to be well and truly baked into all the other retailers.

    At this level I am out. Great company (best of breed) however I can't justify the PE it's trading on vs sector peers.

    Briscoe more highly rated than HLG at the moment because Briscoes not seen as a cyclical stock.

    Cyclicals have low PE ratios at the top of the cycle and high PEs at the bottom ....

    HLG relative low (perceived) PE at moment as its at a cyclical high

    Market not having an incoherent drunk monkey moment - all rationale

    PE ratios have a degree of relativity with in a sector

    Be a boring world if there was a rule that all retail stocks shall have the same PE multiple

    ‘Best of breed’ seem to get rated highly …..RYM, MFT etc etc
