<h3>Evaluating Live Nation Entertainment 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. 
Live Nation Entertainment has a better P/E ratio of 146.75 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 40.48 of the Entertainment industry. Ideally, one might believe that Live Nation Entertainment 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/2025/1736863212_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.

Few hedge fund managers command the attention of Wall Street quite like Dan S. Loeb. As the founder of Third Point, a $7 billion hedge fund, Loeb has made his mark with bold activist strategies that challenge the status quo and drive <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/hedge-funds">transformation in global companies.</a>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Portfolio Overview</h3>
As of Q3 2024, Third Point's portfolio is valued at $7.37 billion, comprising 41 investments. The fund gained 5.3% during the quarter, with top holdings including Pacific Gas &amp; Electric Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PCG#NYSE">PCG</a>) at 13%, Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) at 9.3%, and Danaher Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DHR#NYSE">DHR</a>) at 7.3%. Smaller positions include Vistra Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VST#NYSE">VST</a>) and Bath &amp; Body Works, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BBWI#NYSE">BBWI</a>), each at 5.1%.
Best Performers: These five stocks have surged over 20% in the last 6 months.
<ol>
<li>Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYV#NYSE">LYV</a>) escalated around 43%.</li>
<li>Amazon surged about 18%</li>
<li>Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) rose roughly 17%</li>
<li>Corpay, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CPAY#NYSE">CPAY</a>) rocketed about 29%</li>
<li>Cinemark Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CNK#NYSE">CNK</a>) increased approximately 60%</li>
</ol>
These gains highlight Loeb's ability to capitalize on growth opportunities across the entertainment, tech, and financial sectors.

Investment Strategy:
<ul>
<li>Loeb is a prominent activist investor who acquires significant stakes in underperforming companies to advocate for improvements in management, operations, or governance, with the goal of enhancing shareholder value. A key example is his 2011 investment in Yahoo, where a 5% stake and strategic push led to transformations and over $1 billion in gains, <a href="https://hedgefundalpha.com/dan-loeb-portfolio/">according </a>to Hedge Fund Alpha.</li>
<li>Throughout his career, Loeb has focused more on creating spin-offs than investing in existing ones. He recently applied his activist strategy with Sony and Shell to pursue spin-offs, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2021/10/28/shell-vs-activist-dan-loeb-is-bigger-for-big-oil-than-exxon-board-war.html">according </a>to CNBC, but was unsuccessful in these efforts.</li>
<li>Beyond equities, Loeb explores opportunities in credit markets, including distressed debt and corporate bonds, aiming to generate high-risk-adjusted returns by exploiting inefficiencies in those areas. In 2012, Loeb invested in Greek sovereign bonds during the financial crisis, assessing the risk-reward ratio and achieving strong returns, adding to an already successful year, CNBC <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2012/10/03/third-points-loeb-bets-big-and-wins-on-greek-debt.html">reported</a>.</li>
</ul>
Historical Performance: Since launching in 1995, the fund has averaged annual returns of 16%, attracting new investors with consistent positive performance, according to Hedge Fund Alpha.
Loeb's major successes came during the dot-com bubble and the 2008 financial crisis, with his fund posting a 45% return in 2009 despite a market downturn.
Third Point&#8217;s assets under management reportedly peaked at nearly $18 billion in 2022 before declining to approximately $7 billion, attributed to underperformance during a challenging market period in 2022. By the end of 2023, the fund achieved modest positive returns, indicating some stabilization.

Benchmark Maintains Buy on Live Nation Entertainment, Raises Price Target to $160

Global superstar Taylor Swift turned 35 years old on Friday, Dec. 13, and continues to be one of the most in-demand musicians as witnessed by a recent auction for old family Christmas cards and her recent success with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/12/42351922/trump-predicted-taylor-swift-sales-would-drop-target-data-shows-over-800k-sold">tour photo book.</a>
What Happened: Swift is likely celebrating the end of her <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/12/42393880/taylor-swifts-record-breaking-eras-tour-wraps-a-look-at-the-numbers">record-breaking "Eras Tour"</a> along with her birthday on Friday, but some investors or fans will soon be celebrating their recent purchase.
Auction company Goldin, which is owned by eBay Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EBAY#NASDAQ">EBAY</a>) recently sold two holiday photo cards featuring a young Swift on them, including two Christmas cards sent to friends and family by her parents.
The 1992 and 1993 Christmas cards, sold in separate auctions, featured Swift as a three-year-old and four-year-old respectively, alongside her younger brother.
The 1993 card features the written inscription "from our family to yours…much love, the Swifts/ Scott, Andrea, Taylor (4 years), &amp; Austin (almost 2)."
The Christmas photo cards sold for $2,318 (1992) and $2,566 (1993) for a combined $4,884.

A separate 1993 holiday card also sold for $2,562 earlier this year by Goldin.
Swift's Eras Tour broke records and fans continue to gravitate to memorabilia and merchandise from the singer.
The singer recently released a photo book with pictures and behind-the-scenes stories from the tour through an exclusive partnership with Target Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TGT#NYSE">TGT</a>). The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/42244324/black-friday-frenzy-shoppers-queue-for-taylor-swift-merch-retro-gadgets-and-more-as-retailers-open-doors-early-amid-shortened-shopping-season">book drew lines </a>on Black Friday and also set impressive milestones in its first weekend of availability.
The book sold 814,000 copies over the Black Friday shopping weekend, according to data from Circana&nbsp;<a href="https://apnews.com/article/taylor-swift-eras-book-sales-2024-record-c40605042af98eac2e9a7897a4bc2d73" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported&nbsp;</a>by the Associated Press.
The sales figures come with Target being the only retailer offering the book and being an in-store item for at least the first day. The number makes Swift&#8217;s book the top seller for the week and the biggest launch of 2024.
Swift&#8217;s book is the second-biggest nonfiction launch of all time, trailing only the first volume of&nbsp;Barack Obama&#8216;s&nbsp;2020 memoir, &#8220;A Promised Land,&#8221; the AP reports. The former president's book sold 816,000 copies in its first week. Unlike Swift&#8217;s book, Obama&#8217;s was widely released.
Goldin and eBay can be added to the list of companies that Swift has helped thanks to her popularity, a list that includes AMC Entertainment Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMC#NYSE">AMC</a>) and Live Nation Entertainment (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYV#NYSE">LYV</a>). Swift was also recently named the top streamed artist on Spotify (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPOT#NYSE">SPOT</a>) for a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/12/42325116/2024-was-worlds-taylor-swift-era-once-again-spotify-reveals-top-artists-songs-albums-podcasts">second straight year.</a>
President-elect Donald Trump said that Swift's popularity and merchandise sales <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/09/40815602/trump-shakes-off-taylor-swifts-harris-endorsement-in-2024-election-shell-probably-pay-a-pri">could take a hit</a> after endorsing Kamala Harris in the 2024 election.
&#8220;She seems to always endorse a Democrat and she&#8217;ll probably pay a price for it in the marketplace.&#8221;
It appears Trump has severely underestimated the fandom of the Swifties.

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. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Live Nation Entertainment has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Live Nation Entertainment's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Live Nation Entertainment's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 8.20%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.

How Is The Market Feeling About Live Nation Entertainment?

On CNBC's &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mad-money-lightning-round">Mad Money Lightning Round</a>,&#8221; Jim Cramer said he is ‘not a fan' of Novavax, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVAX#NASDAQ">NVAX</a>).
On Dec. 4, Novavax agreed to sell its Bohumil, Czech Republic-based manufacturing facility to Novo Nordisk A/S (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVO#NYSE">NVO</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42323263/wegovy-maker-novo-nordisk-to-buy-novavaxs-czech-republic-manufacturing-facility-for-200-million">for $200 million.</a>
Also, the Food and Drug Administration recently granted Emergency Use Authorization of the company&#8217;s<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/09/40688052/fda-approves-novavaxs-updated-covid-vaccine-targeting-currently-circulating-variants" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> updated COVID-19 vaccine</a>. The Novavax vaccine is included in the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/09/40752686/benzingas-stock-whisper-index-5-stocks-investors-secretly-monitor-but-dont-talk-about-yet">recommendations</a>.
The vaccine is the only protein-based option available in the U.S. for people aged 12 and older for the prevention of COVID-19.
When asked about Alliance Entertainment (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LNT#NYSE">LNT</a>), Cramer said Live Nation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYV#NYSE">LYV</a>) is a better buy.
On Oct. 31, Alliant Energy posted better-than-expected quarterly results.
Cramer said he can't get behind Nebius Group N.V. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NBIS#NASDAQ">NBIS</a>). &#8220;If I want AI, I will go for Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) as it comes down,&#8221; he added.
On Dec. 2, Nebius Group announced it entered a $700 million private placement financing agreement with institutional investors.
Innodata Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INOD#NASDAQ">INOD</a>) is now a &#8220;very expensive&#8221; stock, Cramer said. &#8220;And I just think if you take a little off the table, you can always get back in.&#8221;
On Nov. 7, Innodata reported better-than-expected third-quarter financial results.
When asked about Smith &amp; Wesson Brands (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SWBI#NASDAQ">SWBI</a>), he said, &#8220;Not my cup of tea, but I don't think it's a bad level to get involved.&#8221;
On Dec. 6, Lake Street and Craig-Hallum both downgraded the stock from Buy to Hold and cut their respective price targets from $18 to $13.
United Parcel Service, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>) has &#8220;gone down so much, it's been such a disappointment,&#8221; the Mad Money host said. &#8220;I still think this stock is too expensive going in to the holiday season.&#8221;
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced on Nov. 22 that it settled charges against United Parcel Service for materially misrepresenting its earnings because it failed to follow generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) when valuing one of its worst <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/24/11/42151959/financial-crime-weekly-ups-pays-45m-fine-bit-mining-pays-4m-fine-for-bribery">performing businesses</a>.&nbsp;
&#8220;I don't want to recommend a stock in the AI category that's losing so much money that's up so much,&#8221; Cramer said when asked about BigBear.ai Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BBAI#NYSE">BBAI</a>).
On Nov. 5, BigBear.ai reported worse-than-expected third-quarter revenue results.

Jim Cramer Is 'Not A Fan' Of Novavax, Says This Tech Stock Is 'Expensive'

President-elect Donald Trump predicted that Taylor Swift would see her sales take a hit after endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris for president, but new data shows that is far from the case as the musician continues to dominate concerts, movies<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/12/42325116/2024-was-worlds-taylor-swift-era-once-again-spotify-reveals-top-artists-songs-albums-podcasts"> and streaming lists.</a>
Swift is also seeing huge success with her new book.
What Happened: Swift launched a new "Eras Tour Book" that provides photos and behind-the-scenes stories and images from the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/23/12/36221025/taylor-swifts-eras-tour-shatters-guinness-record-for-highest-grossing-music-tour-how-much-d">record-breaking Eras Tour.</a>
The book was released on Black Friday exclusively in Target Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TGT#NYSE">TGT</a>) stores. While many holiday shoppers may have chosen to shop online this year and skip standing in lines and waiting outside stores on Black Friday, Target<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/42244324/black-friday-frenzy-shoppers-queue-for-taylor-swift-merch-retro-gadgets-and-more-as-retailers-open-doors-early-amid-shortened-shopping-season"> saw lines </a>at stores thanks to the exclusive Swift book.
Swift's new book sold 814,000 copies over the Black Friday shopping weekend, according to data from Circana <a href="https://apnews.com/article/taylor-swift-eras-book-sales-2024-record-c40605042af98eac2e9a7897a4bc2d73">reported </a>by the Associated Press.
The sales figures come with Target being the only retailer offering the book and being an in-store item for at least the first day. The number makes Swift's book the top seller for the week and the biggest launch of 2024.
According to the report, Circana tracks around 85% of the print market.
Swift's book is the second-biggest nonfiction launch of all time, trailing only the first volume of Barack Obama's 2020 memoir, "A Promised Land," the AP reports. The former president&#8217;s book sold 816,000 copies in its first week. Unlike Swift's book, Obama's was widely released.

Why It's Important: The strong early sales of Target&#8217;s exclusive book highlight Swift&#8217;s undeniable success—something Trump may want to keep in mind.
Earlier this year, Swift<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/09/40815602/trump-shakes-off-taylor-swifts-harris-endorsement-in-2024-election-shell-probably-pay-a-pri"> announced her endorsement</a> for Kamala Harris for president in the 2024 election. The endorsement didn't sit well with Trump.
Trump said he wasn&#8217;t surprised by Swift supporting Harris, saying &#8220;she&#8217;s a very liberal person.&#8221;
&#8220;She seems to always endorse a Democrat and she&#8217;ll probably pay a price for it in the marketplace," Trump said.
The suggestion that endorsing Harris could hurt Swift's future album and merchandise sales might be proven untrue already with the book launch.
The book&#8217;s success comes as the global superstar has witnessed success and helped boost public companies in several sectors previously.
Streaming company Spotify Technology (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPOT#NYSE">SPOT</a>) recently named Swift the most streamed artist worldwide for 2024, taking the title for a second straight year. Swift also ranked as the top streamed artist in the United States, with several albums among the most streamed for the year.
Swift also saw her concert film <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/05/39010959/amc-ceo-says-were-still-here-how-taylor-swift-popcorn-buckets-help-movie-theater-from-going">set records for</a> AMC Entertainment Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMC#NYSE">AMC</a>), despite the film bypassing the traditional release model.
The record-breaking Eras Tour has also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/02/37273654/live-nation-entertainment-q4-earnings-highlights-taylor-swift-effect-continues-with-record-attendan">boosted the financials</a> of Live Nation Entertainment (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYV#NYSE">LYV</a>), which owns Ticketmaster.

In the current session, the stock is trading at $139.73, after a 0.62% spike. Over the past month, Live Nation Entertainment Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYV#NYSE">LYV</a>) stock increased by 19.28%, and in the past year, by 65.85%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are optimistic but others are more likely to look into the price-to-earnings ratio to see if the stock might be overvalued.

<h3>Comparing Live Nation Entertainment P/E Against 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. 
Live Nation Entertainment has a better P/E ratio of 156.03 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 41.7 of the Entertainment industry. Ideally, one might believe that Live Nation Entertainment 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/2024/1732824016_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.
