FMG share price valuation

One way to have a ‘quick read’ of where the FMG share price is, is to study something like dividend yield through time. Remember, the dividend yield is effectively the ‘cash flow’ to a share holder, but it can fluctuate year-to-year or between payments. Currently, Fortescue Ltd shares have a dividend yield of around 9.69%, compared to its 5-year average of 7.08%. Put simply, FMG shares are trading above their historical average dividend yield.

Since HUB is more of a growth company than an established blue chip, a price-sales ratio might be a more appropriate assessment.The HUB share price currently trades at a price-sales ratio of 15.84x, which compares to its 5-year long-term average of 10.64x. So, its shares are trading higher than their historical average. However, a simple multiple like this should only be the start of your research.
