Looking into the current session, Evercore Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVR#NYSE">EVR</a>) shares are trading at $209.23, after a 6.01% decrease. Over the past month, the stock fell by 26.68%, but over the past year, it actually spiked by 6.57%. With questionable short-term performance like this, and great long-term performance, long-term shareholders might want to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio.

<h3>How Does Evercore P/E Compare to Other Companies?</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Evercore has a better P/E ratio of 24.52 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 23.15 of the Capital Markets industry. Ideally, one might believe that Evercore Inc. might perform better in the future than it's industry group, but it's probable that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1741290341_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

Goldman Sachs research kicked off the new year with bold stock picks and a spotlight on five investment themes poised to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/12/42710358/veteran-investor-bets-big-on-sp-500-hitting-7000-by-end-of-2025-these-sectors-could-lead-the-charge">shape markets in 2025.</a>
What Happened: In a note shared Thursday, the analyst team led by Steven Kron shuffled its &#8220;Conviction List&#8221; — a carefully curated portfolio of top investment ideas.
Goldman Sachs added Belden Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BDC#NYSE">BDC</a>), Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NCLH#NYSE">NCLH</a>), and Uber Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) to the list. These companies replaced Fox Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FOXA#NASDAQ">FOXA</a>), Parker Hannifin Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PH#NYSE">PH</a>), and TPG Inc. (TPG).

Why It Matters: Industrial tech is back in vogue. Analyst Mark Delaney sees Belden riding a cyclical industrial recovery while expanding its high-margin software solutions business. Delaney models earnings per share (EPS) above consensus estimates for both 2025 and 2026, making this a standout pick in the industrial space.
Cruises are sailing into a stronger 2025. Analyst Lizzie Dove cites accelerating Net Purchase Intent (NPI) data and cost savings from a 2023 management shuffle. Dove expects Norwegian to widen its yield-to-unit-cost spread by 2.5 percentage points, bringing its valuation closer to peer Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RCL#NYSE">RCL</a>).
Analyst Eric Sheridan remains bullish on Uber despite skepticism over its mobility business and the rise of autonomous vehicles. He forecasts a robust 39% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) in adjusted EBITDA from 2023-2026. According to the bank, Uber is set to deliver $3.50 in GAAP EPS by 2026—a projection that sits 7% above consensus. Goldman Sachs holds a 12-month price target of $96 on Uber stock, implying a nearly 60% upside from current market levels.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Key Themes For 2025: AI, M&amp;A, Deglobalization, And More</h3>
The investment bank also outlined five key themes to track as we enter the new year.
<ul>
<li>Artificial Intelligence: Goldman's Kash Rangan expects AI investment to shift in 2025, moving from infrastructure spending to platforms and applications. In a recent note, Rangan highlighted the increasing integration of AI into enterprise software. Stocks with exposure to this trend include Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Snowflake Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNOW#NYSE">SNOW</a>) and Teradyne Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TER#NASDAQ">TER</a>).</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>De-regulation, M&amp;A, And Capital Markets Rebound: Regulatory changes under a potential second Trump administration could accelerate M&amp;A activity, Goldman analysts say. Financial firms like Citigroup Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>), Evercore Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVR#NYSE">EVR</a>), and S&amp;P Global (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPGI#NYSE">SPGI</a>) are positioned to benefit. Analyst Richard Ramsden recently indicated a more favorable environment for banks and financial advisors.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Re-powering America: Carly Davenport flagged the surging power demands of data centers and AI compute, noting this trend is driving sustained growth in utilities capex. Her team stressed the importance of energy infrastructure to support the transportation electrification. Stocks like DBA Sempra (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SRE#NYSE">SRE</a>) is Goldman&#8217;s top pick here.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Deglobalization: The era of tariff wars is far from over. Jan Hatzius and economics team expect a 20 percentage point hike in tariffs on Chinese imports and new duties on European autos and Mexican EVs. Companies like Vulcan Materials Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VMC#NYSE">VMC</a>) and Woodward Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WWD#NASDAQ">WWD</a>) are well-positioned to adapt to supply chain disruptions caused by these policies.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Resilient US Consumers: Despite macro concerns, Goldman Sachs continues to paint another strong year for U.S. consumers. Discretionary cash flow is expected to grow by 5.2% in 2025, up from 4.4% in 2024, supported by higher savings rates. Stocks to watch include Norwegian Cruise Line, Uber, Burlington Stores Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BURL#NYSE">BURL</a>), and Pinterest Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PINS#NYSE">PINS</a>).</li>

Goldman Sachs Adds 3 Stocks To 'Conviction List,' Flags 5 Market Trends To Monitor In 2025

Looking into the current session, Evercore Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVR#NYSE">EVR</a>) shares are trading at $277.01, after a 0.32% drop. Over the past month, the stock decreased by 8.58%, but over the past year, it actually increased by 69.24%. With questionable short-term performance like this, and great long-term performance, long-term shareholders might want to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1735667108_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Evaluating Evercore P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Evercore has a better P/E ratio of 35.63 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 30.62 of the Capital Markets industry. Ideally, one might believe that Evercore Inc. might perform better in the future than it's industry group, but it's probable that the stock is overvalued.

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.

Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall.
