Money Life with Chuck Jaffe - A podcast by Chuck Jaffe

David Trainer of New Constructs warned in the Danger Zone segment that investors who rely on enterprise value-to-EBITDA as a measure of how cheap a stock is can be easily mislead, and he used ADT Corp. as an example, showing how the stock looks cheap but is actually overpriced. He also showed that Kilberly Clark had the opposite situation, with ratios suggesting it was overpriced but underlying fundamentals that make it cheap. Also on the show, Kelly Anne Smith on BankRate.com's latest survey, Sal Gilbertie of Teucrium Trading talking commodity investing, and John Barr of Needham Growth Fund with the Market Call.
