Why study a company’s profit before investing in the stock market?

The ability of a company to generate profits is important because it is a sign of economic efficiency. This is also the main motivation of private companies.

Note that a stock market investor must also consider other criteria, such as the profitability of their investments, rather than only taking into account the total profits of a company. The investor can then use a ratio such as the P/E ratio (Price Earnings Ratio). This financial ratio, expressed in years, measures the number of years required to reach the stock price.

It is calculated as follows: Stock price / Earnings per Share (EPS).

Thus, a P/E of 15 means that, at the current EPS level (assuming it remains stable), 15 years of EPS would be needed to reach the stock price.
