Barclays’ stock (NYSE: BCS) has gained 1% YTD, as compared to the 16% rise in the S&P500 over the same period. Further, it is currently trading at $8 per share, which is 26% below its fair value of just below $11 – Trefis’ estimate for Barclays’ valuation.
Interestingly, Barclays stock had a Sharpe Ratio of almost zero since early 2017, which is lower than 0.6 for the S&P 500 Index over the same period. This compares with the Sharpe of 1.28 for the Trefis Reinforced Value portfolio. Sharpe is a measure of return per unit of risk, and high-performance portfolios can provide the best of both worlds.
