United Microelectronics Corporation Valuation

No matter how good a company is, if the price that you pay to buy it is too high, you won't make much money. These valuation metrics should give you a sense of reasonable prices, but be careful with them. Always seek to understand why a valuation is changing over time.

@Urbane_Gorilla $UMC I agree. Like it to consolidate a bit before moving higher. Worth keeping an eye on.

@Random_Walk $UMC is at a multiple top. I like that big swing low. If it breaks, it could prove to be a J Hook. Else it'll fail. We'll see.

@Urbane_Gorilla $UMC Good looking chart. Maybe taking a breather before eclipsing new highs?
