Is Technology One A Buy?

It has been one of the best performing ASX shares in 2019 with the share price up 50%. However, it’s now trading on an expensive valuation compared to its current earnings, so it would have to be quite a bit cheaper for it to get back to good value.

But, it is growing at a good pace and I can’t think of many good businesses that are trading at good value. Quality is expensive with how low interest rates are. If you want to find growth for your portfolio I think the rapid ASX growth shares could be good alternatives.
