Most assets do both because most assets, most of the time, aren't really/severely* under- or over-valued. But in general, a moving average can help in determining when they were under/over valued. As a counter-example, an exa

In terms of market value, you can say a financial asset was overvalued at time X if it later decreases a lot in vale, and undervalued the other way around.

Why debt to market cap? Maybe debt to assets, debt to sales and EBITDA, but debt to market cap doesn't look very significant.

We took most of our debt during the 1980s, well before the euro. During the 90s we already had to tighten our belt because of the high debt, which we were actually able to reduce, but, instead of investing in the future, we paid lots of mon

Making big sacrifices now to avert a disaster that is "only" forecast, but not yet tangible/certain in the mind of most people, is incredibly difficult everywhere, not just in India. To cite an example from Italy, everybody

Interestingly, most of the article thesis isn't specific about India being destructed, it's about the World being destructed (over exploitation of natural resources + pollution). But the element that I find strangely missing is th

When you use a credit card, you're not using your own money - you're borrowing the bank's money. It's perfectly legit for them to evaluate the risk associated with what you're using the borrowed money for.

Also importing CSV files works much better. I don't know how many times I had to suggest friends or customers to use openoffice for that, it was just easier than finding the right way to do it in Office.

I, for one, believe that the World needs unions, but there are lots of big problems with lots of unions - eg here in Italy, there is no union I like. One of the biggest problems here is that unions look too much at the short term "good

The difference is that you can't do a IPO with just little more than a white paper, like most ICOs do.

What happens when a sober driver, following the rules, runs over someone? I suppose the same will happen here. If negligence will be found on the part of the engineers, that could get tougher though.

I have no idea how this will work out, but IIRC USD stayed at like 0.93 USD for a few months some time ago, and then went back to parity and then occasionally above parity.

In many ancient societies - and not few contemporary ones - tribalism was thoroughly accepted, as were tribal wars. I would say that having to justify the morality of a war, however many lies this brings about, is still a step forward.

In Economics, investment has a different meaning from the common use. I think that's the reason of the misunderstanding. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Investment_(macroeconomics)

The thing about placebo is that you can't measure it on yourself - you can only find out with large enough double blind tests. But as long as it works for you - placebo or not - good for you!

There are lots of tactics that constitute an abuse of a dominant position. Cross-subsidizing isn't one of the worst.

Absolutely, I didn't mean that all Russians buy the propaganda - I also know how distrustful of the government you are on average. But it's a fact that it's very difficult to get good news sources for those who only understan

I agree with you that there are many people in the West who have (almost) 100% trust in national media, and that that level of trust is misplaced, but I don't agree at all that the situation is the same as in Russia (where I've be

If you're interested, I regularly read what some of Putin's supporter I know post on Reddit (mostly coming from RT and Sputnik). This way, I keep up on that kind of propaganda without having to read all the Russian media agencies

AI should bring growth to GDP, but it will also most likely bring about even further concentration of wealth and income. The long-term results could depend a lot on public policy.
