Nine-month earnings sharpen the picture

What does profit mean for valuation?

The answer is that investors are judging a large financial group near the top of its yearly range while its latest reported period carries a concrete earnings figure. The price-to-earnings ratio was 19.39 in the latest market profile, giving the profit result direct relevance for valuation rather than leaving the stock story to price alone.
