Negative PE Ratio by Choong Hwee

5 years, 10 months ago 1346 views

Hi guys, 

 

Choong Hwee has informed me that for the fundamentals backtest, some of the companies that were selected based on lowest PE ratio include stocks like Tesla.

Upon further investigation it was because the earnings from Tesla was negative, causing the PE ratio to be negative and included as a value stock. 
I have updated the backtester to exclude stocks with negative PE ratio from this signal.
Choong Hwee can you please re run your backtest? I've sent you an email about this but seems you haven't seen it. 


Kind regards,

Ivan

Hi Ivan,

Thanks for your quick response in fixing the issue. I have re-run the backtest and no more negative PE stocks are selected.

Regards,
Choong Hwee
