Buy Hold Sell: 3 stocks with ultra-low PEs (and 2 darlings to drop)

Buy Hold Sell, by Livewire Markets

Despite our good intentions, our behavioural biases can often get in the way of making good investment decisions. As Benjamin Graham wrote, "The investor's chief problem - and even his worst enemy - is likely to be himself."

So how do you lessen the likelihood of a behavioural blunder? Just like everything in investing - there is no easy answer. But simple tools such as price-to-earnings ratios may help.

Traditionally, stocks with high PE ratios are considered overvalued - with investors paying up for promises of future growth. But are lower PE stocks always better value?

To find out, Livewire's Ally Selby was joined by Merlon Capital Partners' Neil Margolis and Totus Capital's Ben McGarry for their analysis of three of the lowest PE names on the ASX.

Plus, for a little dash of drama, we asked them to name one crowded darling that could drop from here.
