California Resources PEG Ratio

California Resources posts a PEG ratio of 1.41. That is above the Energy sector average of -4.94. Comparing that reading with peers and prior periods is usually more useful than looking at the number in isolation.

For Energy stocks, a PEG ratio near -4.94 is typical. California Resources's 1.41 is higher that level. That is roughly 128.6% above the sector mean. Whether that is a warning or an opportunity depends on growth outlook and other fundamentals shown elsewhere on Stockcircle.

California Resources's PEG ratio of 1.41 comes from dividing a price-based measure by a related financial statistic. Changes can come from the stock price moving, the underlying fundamental shifting, or both. Track both the level and the trend — a rising multiple on falling fundamentals is a different story than a rising multiple on rising earnings.

Context for CRC's PEG ratio usually means three checks: (1) trend versus prior periods, (2) level versus peers (average -4.94), and (3) consistency with growth and profitability. This page covers the first two; California Resources's other metric pages and overview cover the third.

Judging California Resources against Energy peers is usually better than using a market-wide rule of thumb. Business models inside Energy are more comparable, which makes gaps in PEG ratio easier to interpret. Start with 1.41 here, then scan peer and history charts to see if the gap is persistent.
