Hi,
Over in the URBN forum a discussion of how to improve upon the Stock Comparison Guide form from NAIC/BI began to take shape. I've moved the discussion here and hope to hear folks thoughts on how to best design a web-based stock comparison for fundamental analysis. I'll post the comments so far from the URBN forum here. Thanks and looking forward to your feedback.
Dave

By the way, I think the Stock Comparison Guide is a poor form with way too many questions on PEs that skew the outcome of the comparison unless you "click" them off (which you didn't); I always "click off" lines 11, 12, 14, and 15. Moreover, I can't learn and compare to my SSGs your Forecast Hi and Lo PEs and your Forecast Hi and Lo Prices. And, you chose Yield for line 23 which means I can't learn your Total Return and left lines 27 and 28 blank (which aren't vital, but I like to learn R squared and compare PEGs).
Because of the SCG's shortcomings, I create a table to compare SSGs: see, for example, my posts on COH, SBUX, and IAS on INFY.

Dave: I hope you will consider some improvements to the SCG. You are no doubt aware of the shortcomings, but I would suggest taking a look at Saul Seinbergs's analysis and critique of the tool. You can read Saul's workshop over on Compuserve Form, Thread 28878. In addition to Saul's comments I would add that Line 16, Current P/E ratio might be modified. SCG currently 'votes' for the lowest P/E ratio - maybe 'differential between current & historical P/E' would be more meaningful. The SCG is quite a useful tool, when used with weightings and the knowledge of how the tool votes.
Bottom line, here's a 'vote' for SCG with changes and caveats and instructions.
Thanks for considering this.
