Looking into the current session, Trade Desk Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTD#NASDAQ">TTD</a>) shares are trading at $119.05, after a 0.08% drop. Over the past month, the stock fell by 1.89%, but over the past year, it actually spiked by 66.54%. 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/2025/1737729008_0_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>How Does Trade Desk P/E Compare to Other Companies?</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. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 575.87 in the Media industry, Trade Desk Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 192.16. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1737729008_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.

Mark Cuban is famous for straightforward financial advice, such as, "Don't use credit cards. If you use a credit card, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/05/39092288/if-you-use-your-credit-card-you-do-not-want-to-be-rich-warns-mark-cuban-on-the-dave-ramsey-show">you don't want to be rich.</a>" It's a message he's shared countless times, from blog posts to chats with financial gurus like Dave Ramsey. But even Cuban couldn't avoid his ironic <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/09/40920706/billionaire-mark-cuban-says-his-credit-was-so-bad-radio-shack-denied-him-if-you-use-credit-cards">run-in with a credit card – </a>one that's become the stuff of NBA legend.
It happened in 2011, after his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42865308/mark-cuban-on-selling-dallas-mavericks-stake-i-didnt-want-my-kids-feeling-the-pressure-of-walking-in">Dallas Mavericks clinched</a> their first-ever NBA championship by taking down the Miami Heat. Naturally, Cuban wanted to celebrate in style. He and the team headed to LIV nightclub in Miami, where Cuban decided to treat himself to a 15-liter bottle of Armand de Brignac Champagne (aka "Ace of Spades") with a jaw-dropping price tag of $140,000.
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>
<li>The average 401(k) balance soars to a record-breaking high – <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/average-401k-balances-soars-to-record-high">Here's how to know if your nest egg is keeping pace.</a></li>
</ul>
When it came time to pay, Cuban confidently handed over his American Express Centurion Card, better known as the "Black Card." And then? Declined.
In a 2018 Fox Sports 1's Fair Game interview, Cuban laughed as he retold the story. "I had to go into the back office and call Amex," he said. "They told me, ‘Sir, this hasn't been authorized. It's a new card.'"
Always quick on his feet, Cuban explained the situation to a seemingly unimpressed customer service rep. "I asked to speak to a supervisor and said, ‘Did you see the NBA game tonight? Are you a basketball fan?'" His pitch? Classic Cuban charm. "This is Mark Cuban. We just won the championship. Can I please spend some money?"
David Grutman, the owner of LIV, remembered the chaos, too. "We were in the back because his credit card was denied," he said, shaking his head at how surreal the moment was.
Trending: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">Are you rich?</a> Here&#8217;s what Americans think you need to be considered wealthy.
Here's the thing: the Amex Centurion Card is technically not a credit card – it's a charge card. What's the difference? A charge card typically requires you to pay off the balance in full each month, unlike credit cards, which allow you to carry a balance (and rack up interest). Charge cards also don't have a preset spending limit, but that doesn't mean charges won't get flagged based on spending patterns or payment history. So, while Cuban's card might not have had a specific limit, Amex played gatekeeper that night.
The story is even funnier when considering Cuban's longtime stance on credit cards. He's spent years warning people against them, claiming, "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/11/42248381/mark-cuban-insists-credit-cards-are-not-your-friend-and-proposes-taking-out-a-personal-loan-for-expenses-instead-is-this-a-smart-move">The best place to invest</a> is to pay off all your credit cards and burn them. " But to be fair, he also acknowledges credit cards can work – if you pay off the balance in full every month.
Reflecting on the lesson, Cuban has said, "The 18%, 20%, even 30% interest you're paying is going to cost you way more than you could ever earn elsewhere." It's sound advice, even if Cuban once had to plead with Amex to let him <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">splurge on Champagne</a>.
That night might've started with an awkward pause at the register, but it ended with a Champagne toast in true Mark Cuban fashion.
