The stock is currently above from its 52 week low by 102.90%. Assuming that all other factors are held constant, this could present itself as an opportunity for investors trying to diversify their portfolio with Leisure Products stocks, and capitalize on the lower share price observed over the year.

The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company’s current performance against its past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also shows that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future.

Most often, an industry will prevail in a particular phase of a business cycle, than other industries.

Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of 14.71 in the Leisure Products industry, Hasbro Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of 30.87. Shareholders might be inclined to think that Hasbro Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It’s also possible that the stock is overvalued.

There are many limitations to price to earnings ratio. It is sometimes difficult to determine the nature of the earnings makeup of a company. Shareholders might not get what they're looking for, from trailing earnings.
