S&P Global is undervalued by a lot, trading near 23x earnings and 20x forward versus a historical 30+, especially for a business of its quality. Mastercard may be fairly valued or slightly below, though it is the best business in the world with the least risk. This answers @Greg_GL_87, who argued both still trade near 30x earnings. x.com 

S&P Global's ratings and indices could form an exceptionally profitable, wide-moat standalone business. Without its other units, their implied operating margin would be around 68%, among the market's top five; that makes further spinoffs sensible, though the separation is hypothetical. x.com  x.com 

S&P Global's two core businesses are growing nicely, and buying back roughly 5% of its shares at this valuation should create value over time. Excluding Mobility, Q2 revenue rose 11% and EPS 26%. Guidance came in a few pennies below consensus, but the report is hard to dislike. x.com 

S&P Global's stock price has recently disconnected from its business fundamentals, the kind of dislocation that makes a stock worth buying. x.com 

S&P Global may be boring, but it has one of the more interesting setups: after falling about 20% year to date, it trades at about 22x forward earnings versus a five-year average of about 29x. Nine tracked fund managers bought or added to it. x.com 

S&P Global's valuation compression while fundamentals still look good is a gift from the market, because it owns two of the strongest businesses in the world. x.com 

S&P Global and Moody's look pretty cheap for a duopoly growing 10-11% a year, trading at 20-25 times earnings, with S&P Global the cheaper of the two. x.com 

Strong corporate profit margins may make the S&P 500 better value than traditional P/E ratios suggest, despite elevated stock prices. Per Bloomberg, its P/E-to-profitability ratio is at its lowest in nearly 14 years, last seen around 2012. Wall Street might be overlooking something important. x.com 

The S&P 500's elevated P/E masks concentration in just a few stocks, making index exposure less appealing than selective stock picking for risk and reward. Its P/E is well above the ten-year median; digging into individual constituents looks more sensible than buying all 500. x.com 

S&P Global looks like a strong, fairly low-risk stock likely to beat the market from here, as it trades at 20x forward earnings, among its lowest levels in a decade, despite one of the world's strongest moats. With Moody's it forms one of the best duopolies anywhere, yet it has been lumped into the SaaS selloff. x.com
