Deep Analysis

The PEG ratio (price-to-earnings growth) measures a stock's price relative to its earnings growth rate; a ratio of 4.24x means investors are paying $4.24 for every $1 of expected earnings growth.

This is well above the sector median of 0.97x, placing CHRW in the 87th percentile among peers, indicating it is significantly more expensive relative to growth. Over the last eight quarters the trend has been stable, though the most recent quarter-over-quarter change shows a +14.0% increase; year-over-year data is not available. The combination of a high PEG level and a rising near-term trend suggests that valuation risk has increased, as the stock now commands a larger premium for the same growth expectations. This elevated and recently increasing metric directly supports the overall CAUTIOUS verdict by highlighting an unfavorable risk-reward balance compared to sector norms.
