For Telecommunications stocks, a PEG ratio near -6.72 is typical. TEGNA's -21.37 is lower that level. That is roughly 218.0% below the sector mean. Whether that is a warning or an opportunity depends on growth outlook and other fundamentals shown elsewhere on Stockcircle.

TEGNA's PEG ratio of -21.37 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.
