The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's earnings per share. 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.

P/E比率是指当期股价与公司每股收益之比。长线投资者用它来对比公司过去的收益、历史数据和行业或标普500等指数的总体市场数据，分析公司当前的表现。较高的市盈率表明投资者预期该公司在未来会有更好的表现，股票可能被高估了，但不一定。这还表明，投资者目前愿意支付更高的股价，因为他们预计该公司在未来几个季度的表现会更好。这也令投资者对未来派息上升持乐观态度。
