Two prominent political figures have joined decentralized social media platform Bluesky, moves that coincided with helping to promote the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/03/44555540/elon-musk-sparks-legal-showdown-with-1-million-voter-payouts-in-wisconsin-defying-court-battle">Wisconsin Supreme Court election</a> that has been of interest to Elon Musk.
What Happened: Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and former President Barack Obama are the latest political figures to join Bluesky, a social media platform that has gained followers since <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42867967/elon-musks-x-rival-bluesky-is-being-valued-at-700-million-after-explosive-growth-post-trumps-victory-report">the 2024 election.</a>
Clinton used her first post to discuss the Wisconsin Supreme Court election.
"Hi BlueSky. It's Hillary. I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought," Clinton <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/hillaryclinton.bsky.social/post/3lloznbrxks2f">posted</a>.
This high-stakes race for an open seat on Wisconsin's Supreme Court has captured national attention as a battleground for President Donald Trump's agenda. Billionaire Elon Musk and his allies are pouring record sums into supporting Brad Schimel, a Waukesha County judge and former Wisconsin attorney general. Schimel is up against Susan Crawford, a Dane County judge backed by Democrats. With the majority control of the court hanging in the balance, the outcome could shape key rulings on abortion rights and redistricting in this pivotal swing state, <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/elections/results/2025/04/01/wisconsin-supreme-court/">stated</a> the Washington Post.
Clinton's post about the race came after Obama recently joined the social media platform, where his first post was to celebrate the anniversary of the Affordable Care Act.
"Figured I'd hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act. With everything going on right now — it's easy to feel like regular folks can't make a difference — but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress," Obama <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/barackobama.bsky.social/post/3ll2cs2g4tk27">posted</a>.
Obama also posted about the Wisconsin election after his first post.
Musk has spent more than $20 million on the Wisconsin Supreme Court race, according to a TechCrunch <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/03/31/hillary-clinton-joins-bluesky/">report</a>.
Bluesky has around 33 million users, according to the report.

Top Bluesky Accounts: The addition of Obama and Clinton could give top-followed accounts on Bluesky a run for their money.
Obama is the second most-followed account on X, after previously holding the title of most-followed before he was overtaken <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/03/31466470/elon-musk-now-the-most-followed-person-on-twitter-too-late-to-say-sorry-thanks-obama">by Musk in 2023.</a>
The former president has 130.5 million followers on X, trailing Musk's 219.9 million to rank second.
On Bluesky, Obama has 338.2 thousand followers, a strong start since his recent join. Clinton has 202.5 thousand followers since joining the platform.
Here are the current top 10 most-followed accounts on <a href="https://vqv.app/">Bluesky</a>:
<ol>
<li>Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Ortez: 2.08 million</li>
<li>Mark Cuban: 1.46 million</li>
<li>George Takei: 1.25 million</li>
<li>Mark Hamill: 1.23 million</li>
<li>The Onion: 1.22 million</li>
<li>The New York Times: 1.13 million</li>
<li>Stephen King: 1.02 million</li>
<li>Rachel Maddow: 984,000</li>
<li>Meidas Touch: 960,000</li>
<li>Alt National Park Service: 844,000</li>
</ol>
Ocasio-Cortez remains the most-followed account. Back in December,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/12/42421291/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-aoc-hits-1-million-followers-with-top-bluesky-account-mark-cuban-gains-popularity-jack-dorsey-notably-absent"> Benzinga highlighted her lead</a> when she had 1.1 million followers. Cuban has jumped up to second place, after previously ranking outside the top three.
Many of the top followed accounts are Democrats or liberal voices, including some who have taken breaks or moved on from posting on X in the past. Musk&#8217;s ownership of X has prompted some to leave the platform or post less.
Obama currently ranks as the 82nd most followed Bluesky account, with Clinton ranking outside the top 500.
Over time, the two political figures are likely to gain large followings and move up the leaderboard.

$100 Invested In Old Republic Intl 5 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Shares of big tech companies, especially the Magnificent Seven, have dropped over the past six weeks as President Donald Trump's tariff agenda drove a wave of uncertainty through the market. 
Wedbush analyst Dan Ives pointed to two major concerns for tech investors ahead of Trump's "Liberation Day" tariff <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44575292/trump-to-target-dirty-15-countries-with-tariffs-which-countries-could-be-included">announcements expected Wednesday. </a>
Expert Ideas: Ives said the two biggest concerns for tech investors are a possible slowdown in AI spending amid the economic uncertainty and Beijing's potential retaliation to Trump's tariffs.&nbsp;
AI Spending Slowdown: Trump's tariff rollout threatens to inject caution into corporate spending, potentially delaying AI projects as businesses grapple with higher costs and economic uncertainty.

"In covering tech stocks and markets the last 25 years, we have seen some &#8216;fork in the road&#8217; political moments that have created major uncertainty for the markets&#8230;.and this Trump tariff announcement is up at the top of that list," Ives wrote. 
While AI adoption and investment remain robust, the near-term growth trajectory could stall if tariffs dampen demand and squeeze margins. 
The Wedbush analyst also noted tariffs are ultimately paid for by consumers and decreased consumer confidence and spending could weigh further on companies like Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and Apple, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>). 
China: Beijing's response to the tariffs is another wildcard for tech stocks, especially semiconductor supply chains which are "cemented" in Asia, Ives said.&nbsp;
Retaliatory measures could disrupt production of critical components of NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) chips and accelerate China's push for self-reliance.  
Relocating even a fraction of Asia's semiconductor infrastructure to the U.S. would take years and cost hundreds of billions, leaving tech exposed to prolonged volatility.&nbsp;
"It would take three-four years to move even 10% of the supply chain from Asia to the U.S. in our view and cost hundreds of billions along with major supply chain delays and challenges in between," Ives warned.

Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Lockheed Martin Stock In The Last 15 Years

Back in 2019, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44461713/elon-musk-said-youll-need-to-work-at-least-80-hours-a-week-to-make-an-impact-nobody-ever-changed?utm_campaign=partner_feed&amp;utm_source=aol&amp;utm_medium=partner_feed&amp;utm_content=site">Elon Musk was surprisingly upbeat</a> for a guy juggling rockets, cars, and a brain-chip startup. At a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/live/r-vbh3t7WVI?si=TEOP6EiMVCBcA3qg">Neuralink event at the California Academy of Sciences</a>, Musk made it clear—he wasn't buying into the whole "everything's terrible" narrative.
"Humanity can address a lot of the suffering that occurs in the world and make things a lot better," he said. "I think a lot of times people are quite sort of negative about the present and about the future, but really if you are a student of history, when else would you really want to be alive?"
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>Deloitte's fastest-growing software company partners with Amazon, Walmart &amp; Target – <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">Many are rushing to grab 4,000 of its pre-IPO shares for just $0.26/share!</a></li>
<li><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/arrived-centennial">Jeff Bezos-Backed Arrived Homes Hits A Big Sale On Charlotte Property – Investors Earning A 34.7% Return</a></li>
</ul>
In Musk's eyes, now is actually the best time to be alive—yes, even with traffic, taxes, and inflation. "Those who think the past is better have not read enough history," he added.
Sure, the past had pyramids and the Renaissance, but it also had leech treatments and no Wi-Fi. Musk wasn't glamorizing a hyper-idealized future either—he was pointing out that progress is messy, but it's progress nonetheless.
Fast-forward to 2024, and Musk's optimism hasn't exactly dimmed—it just got a high-tech upgrade.
At the <a href="https://vivatechnology.com/media/press-releases/breaking-news-elon-musk-returns-to-vivatech-for-an-exclusive-q-and-a-session">VivaTech conference in Paris</a>, Musk dropped another headline-grabber: "In a benign scenario, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/24/05/39044740/probably-none-of-us-will-have-a-job-elon-musk-predicts-massive-job-losses-due-to-ai">probably none of us will have a job</a>." A little jarring, yes. But according to Musk, it's not all doom and robots. He sees a future where AI and automation handle most of the work, freeing humans to pursue hobbies and passions.
Trending: BlackRock is calling 2025 the year of alternative assets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">One firm from NYC has quietly built a group of 60,000+ investors who have all joined in on an alt asset class previously exclusive to billionaires like Bezos and Gates.</a>
He wasn't suggesting mass layoffs or some grim, jobless wasteland. The point, he explained, is that <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/dont-think-were-going-choice-233043707.html">jobs might not be necessary in the way we know them</a>. With enough technological progress, "you can have a high-quality standard of living without needing to work."&nbsp;
In true Musk fashion, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/03/44526637/elon-musk-says-ai-will-be-smarter-in-10-years-than-humans-who-will-have-a-much-higher-standard-of-living">he doubled down on hope</a>.
Earlier this month, during a <a href="https://x.com/i/broadcasts/1DXxyqnNoqbxM">company-wide Tesla meeting</a>, Musk thanked his team for being part of what he described as a handpicked group "destined to make history." He told employees across the globe: "What I'm here to tell you is that the future is incredibly bright and exciting, and we're going to do things that no one I think has even dreamed of."
Call it Musk's version of a halftime locker room speech—but for a team building the future. And with Tesla under scrutiny and investors wary of his side quests, the reassurance wasn't just motivational fluff. It was strategy.

If They Could Show A Plan For Ending World Hunger He'd Donate $6 Billion – ‘I Will Sell Tesla Stock Right Now And Do It'</a>
Wedbush analyst and longtime Tesla bull Dan Ives described it as much-needed "hand holding" for investors during what he called a "dark brand crisis tornado." Translation: Musk knew things were looking shaky and did what he does best—throw big vision at big problems.
So, where does that leave us?
Somewhere between "the past wasn't that great" and "the future might not require a resume." Musk is betting on a world that doesn't just survive disruption—it thrives on it. And while he's known for outlandish timelines and bold predictions, the core message hasn't really changed since 2019: stop doomscrolling and zoom out.
Things aren't perfect, but they've never been perfect. And if you ask Musk, now's still the best time to be alive—even if the robots are coming.

Elon Musk Says We're Living in the Best Time — And If You Disagree, You Probably Should Read a History Book: 'When Else Would You Want To Be Alive?'

Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) CEO RJ Scaringe didn't hold back at the NVIDIA GTC conference when he shared being upset at how far ahead China is than the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/top-stories/25/03/44313558/nvidia-stock-reached-all-time-highs-after-jensen-huangs-ces-keynote-will-next-weeks-gtc-spark-another-surge"> U.S. in EV market share. </a>
Here's what Scaringe said sets China apart and how the U.S. can catch up.
What Happened: Scaringe has positioned Rivian to be a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42986863/us-electric-vehicle-sales-hit-record-1-3-million-units-in-2024-despite-tesla-declines-top-10-bestsel">pure-play electric vehicle company</a>, to have models that all consumers will enjoy and can afford. The company just isn't there yet and according to Scaringe it couldn't come soon enough.
During his recent GTC Conference fireside, Scaringe said 45% of all new car sales in China were electric vehicles, a figure significantly ahead of the 8% of new car sales that were EVs in the U.S.
Scaringe said China is innovating in the electric vehicle space at "lightning speed," as reported by <a href="https://electrek.co/2025/03/31/rivian-ceo-why-china-leads-evs-how-the-us-can-catch-up/">Electrek</a>. The Rivian CEO said China is advancing battery technology, adding new models constantly and has vehicles priced conveniently for consumers.
The Rivian CEO compares that to the American market where technology isn't advancing as much and there are only "two great, high compelling choices" priced under $50,000.
Scaringe highlights the Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) Model Y and Model 3 as being examples of electric vehicles under $50,000.
While Tesla has options and is leading the way, Scaringe says other automotive companies need to do more to keep up with China, including having vehicles priced under $50,000.
Rivian currently offers the R1S SUV and R1T electric pickup truck, which are both priced over $50,000. Rivian's R2 will increase the customer base of who can afford their electric vehicles, Scaringe said.
Scaringe said the R2 offers "the magic of what is a Rivan at that higher price and puts it into a slightly smaller package." The R2 will open up the potential customer base "dramatically" with a starting price of around $45,000, Scaringe said.

Why It's Important: Even if the R2 is successful, Scaringe said the U.S. EV market needs more options. The Rivian CEO said there needs to be another "10, 15, 20 other options" under $50,000 to help the EV market truly grow in the U.S.
Scaringe says technology is also important and the company he co-founded along with Tesla have "redefined the network architecture" with integrated technology.
"You have to have the plumbing right," Scaringe said of vertical integration.
Rivian has a joint venture with Volkswagen that will see the automotive company use its software in future electric vehicles.
Scaringe <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/24/11/42217317/tesla-has-best-ev-under-50k-rivian-ceo-says-in-praise-of-rival-its-a-great-brand">highlighted the Model Y</a> last year, saying it was the best electric vehicle under $50,000 available on the market.
Rivian's focus on new models under $50,000 is among the biggest catalysts for the stock moving forward. Demand for future Rivian models will show whether price point is one of the largest determining factors in buying an electric vehicle in the U.S..
RIVN Price Action: Rivian stock closed up 6.67% to $13.28 on Tuesday versus a 52-week trading range of $8.26 to $18.86. Rivian stock is up 0.2% year-to-date in 2025 and up 19.8% over the last year.

Here's How Much $1000 Invested In L3Harris Technologies 20 Years Ago Would Be Worth Today

Back in 2008—while the markets were melting down and Wall Street was reaching for antacids—<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44527315/warren-buffett-told-students-how-he-got-rich-without-raising-a-dime-then-said-youre-already-living-better-than-john-d-rockefeller">Warren Buffett</a> wasn't browsing Zillow or test-driving Lamborghinis. He was answering questions from students at the <a href="https://www.ivey.uwo.ca/media/2809438/buffett-2008.pdf">University of Western Ontario</a> and casually dropping billionaire-level perspective like it was no big deal.
"What can I possibly do with billions and billions of dollars?" Buffett said. "I don't see the fuss in having six houses with greenskeepers; I don't see the fuss in having 20 cars in the garage."
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>Deloitte's fastest-growing software company partners with Amazon, Walmart &amp; Target – <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">Many are rushing to grab 4,000 of its pre-IPO shares for just $0.26/share!</a></li>
<li>Warren Buffett once said, "If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die."<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/warren-buffet-make-money-when-you-sleep"> Here&#8217;s how you can earn passive income with just $100.</a></li>
</ul>
This wasn't the last time Buffett shrugged off the trappings of extreme wealth. In a <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/person-to-person-warren-buffett/">2012 interview with Charlie Rose</a>, he was asked, "So no desire to have lots of, a lot of mansions around the world, a big boat—all those things that your wealth would allow you to do?" Buffett replied, "I have every possession I want. I have a lot of friends who have a lot more possessions. But in some cases, I feel the possessions possess them, rather than the other way around."
The man's worth over $164 billion and still lives in the same Omaha house he bought in 1958 for $31,500 and drives a 2014 Cadillac. While hedge fund managers chase private jets and penthouses, Buffett's idea of a splurge is a Coke and a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/10/41230382/warren-buffett-lets-the-stock-market-decide-his-mcdonalds-breakfast-order-when-its-up-he-spends-">McDonald's breakfast sandwich</a>—preferably with exact change.
Trending: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">Are you rich?</a> Here&#8217;s what Americans think you need to be considered wealthy.
He reminded students that it's not about stacking assets for show, but finding a life you actually enjoy waking up to. "The problem is not getting rich, but finding a game you enjoy and living a normal life," he said.
And if you think he's all dollars and spreadsheets, he pivoted from billion-dollar valuations to marriage advice without missing a beat. "The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44182984/warren-buffett-spent-71-years-of-his-life-married-and-says-the-secret-to-a-long-lasting-marriage-is-finding-someone-with-low-expectations">most important thing is finding the right spouse</a>… If you make that one decision right I will guarantee you a good result in life."
Buffett's tone was relaxed, even playful. When asked what qualities to look for in a partner, he deadpanned: "Humor, looks, character, brains—or just someone with low expectations."

While Wall Street churned through chaos, Buffett sat in Omaha telling a room full of business students that a satisfying life doesn't come with a dozen garages or live-in groundskeepers. It comes from doing what you love, treating money like a tool—not a trophy—and maybe marrying someone who thinks you're hilarious.
It may have been 17 years ago, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/11/41949050/bill-gates-warned-the-u-s-will-experience-another-2008-style-financial-crisis-he-cant-predict-when-but-says-this-is-a-certainty">but the wisdom still hits</a>. Back when Buffett made those remarks, Facebook was still shiny and new, flip phones were king, and people were updating their Top 8 on MySpace. Now it's TikTok trends and digital real estate in the metaverse—but Buffett's message hasn't aged a day. In a world obsessed with more, he's proof that enough can actually be… enough.

Why It's Important: Tesla retook the crown in March as the most-searched ticker on Benzinga Pro, narrowly edgeing out the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust. Tesla ranked first or second in many searches over the past two years and finished 2024 as the second most-searched ticker before falling to fifth place in February.
The Invesco QQQ Trust was one of the biggest gainers in March going from 17th place in February to fourth place in March. Apple also rejoined the top 10 going from 16th place to eighth place.
Super Mico Computer, which ranked first in the month of February, fell to ninth place in March. The company continues to be one of the most-searched tickers on Benzinga Pro in recent months.
The list of most-searched tickers in March looked significantly different, with only seven of the top 10 coming from the list of the 20 most-searched tickers in February. Of those seven tickers, five ranked in the top 10 in both February and March.
Newcomers in March included MicroAlgo, Visionary Holdings and D-Wave Quantum. Each of these stocks had major news in the month.
MicroAlgo<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44463040/why-microalgo-mlgo-stock-is-skyrocketing"> announced a $20 million offering</a> in March
Visionary Holdings <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44168361/visionary-holdings-gv-stock-is-up-320-this-week-whats-going-on">announced a $1 billion </a>financing deal with Qatar's Alfardan Group to help support R&amp;D and global expansion of new energy vehicles.
D-Wave <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44333718/d-wave-quantum-stock-surges-following-strong-q4-bookings-growth-whats-going-on">reported fourth-quarter bookings</a> of $18.3 million, up 502% year-over-year.
In the 11th through 20th positions, Amazon, Intel and Applovin were the carryovers from February's top 20 most-searched tickers. The stocks ranked 13th, 18th and 14th, respectively, in the month of March.
Of the 10 stocks ranked 11th to 20th, five were among the 20 most-searched tickers in 2024 with Amazon, Intel, MicroStrategy, Meta Platforms and Microsoft all ranking in the top 20.
Among the notable stocks to miss out on the March list was Advanced Micro Devices Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>), which ranked 11th in February and was the sixth most-searched ticker on Benzinga Pro in 2024.

EXCLUSIVE: March's 20 Most-Searched Tickers On Benzinga Pro — Where Do Tesla, Nvidia, Apple, Applovin Stock Rank?

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tsmc" rel="noreferrer noopener">close to 15%</a> decline in stock value year-to-date coincided with Donald Trump&#8217;s inauguration as the U.S. president on January 21.
The market remains jittery over the contract chipmaker&#8217;s potential failure to deliver in sync with the expansion of U.S. manufacturing, ultimately taking a toll on its profit margins, the Financial Times <a target="_blank" href="https://www.ft.com/content/34106b33-a6b1-4de7-ae76-e0e801534d9b" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
Speculations included how Taiwan Semiconductor&#8217;s additional investment aimed to fix the manufacturing operations of its struggling rival Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>), following which the U.S. might prompt the Taiwanese chipmaker to divest operations being a monopoly.

TSMC has yet to elaborate on the incremental $100 billion investment, unlike its first commitment to invest in production capacity in Arizona in 2020.
It then mentioned a construction and commercial production start date and named the process technology generation. It offered similar transparency when it ramped up its investment plans to $40 billion in late 2022 and then to $65 billion in April 2024.
This time, the company only said it would build three more fabrication plants, or fabs, on top of the three previously announced ones, plus two facilities for packaging several chips together on one substrate.
On March 3, Taiwan Semiconductor chief CC Wei announced a further $100 billion investment in the U.S. in response to Trump&#8217;s alleged accusations of Taiwan &#8220;stealing&#8221; the U.S. semiconductor business.
Trump said the additional investment would bring more chip manufacturing into U.S. territory.
The additional $100 billion was an estimated price tag for plans that had been on the books for the long term. Reportedly, the company acquired enough land in 2020 to build six fabs.
Separate reports indicated Taiwan Semiconductor <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/emerging-markets/25/03/44563420/despite-us-expansion-taiwan-semiconductor-reaffirms-commitment-to-home-base-with-new-initiatives-reuters" rel="noreferrer noopener">reaffirming Taiwan&#8217;s commitment</a> to domestic investments and keeping the advanced tech in Taiwan.
In 2023, Taiwan Semiconductor held 67% of the market share in contracted semiconductor manufacturing and ~80% in advanced technology products.
Taiwan Semiconductor accounts for&nbsp;over a third&nbsp;of the Taiwan benchmark&#8217;s weight.
Price Action:&nbsp;TSM closed higher by 1.59% to $168.64 at the last check on Tuesday.

<h3>Evaluating Travelers Companies P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Travelers Companies has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 17.76 of the Insurance industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1743544819_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.
