Do intelligent investors create their own ratios in their analysis for what they see is most pertinent? For example, I don't see the value of asset-based multiples like ROA without removing the presence of cash on the balance sheet. Or do investors just use the industry-standard multiples.
Any anecdotes of times you analyzed companies through unique ratios that were not the standard?
