Better use this ratio to avoid value traps: 5 stocks with the right PEG ratio and an upside potential of up to 39%

Given the events of the past week – and expected global cues – the markets are likely to remain volatile for a while and even see some correction. So, be mindful of two things before making any buy decision. First, manage risks. If you manage risks well, returns will follow. Second, don't buy stocks because they look relatively cheap compared to the recent past – and that too based on a single ratio, the PE ratio. Rather, use the PEG ratio. This is determined by dividing a company’s PE multiple with its growth rate.
