Very nicely said about dividends, Delmar33!
Without dividends, one would be at the mercy of market corrections to see any ROI.
Graham provided the following definition - "An investment operation is one which, upon thorough analysis, promises safety of principal and an adequate return. Operations not meeting these requirements are speculative."
Without dividends, there cannot be a "promise" of adequate return. (Except for buying NCAV stocks, in which case one straightaway receives more cash equivalents than one pays)

HFC has a very low P/E that compensates for the higher P/B, jmorgan102.
Graham said:
"6. Current price should not be more than 15 times average earnings. 7. Current price should not be more than 1-1⁄2 times the book value. As a rule of thumb, we suggest that the product of the multiplier times the ratio of price to book value should not exceed 22.5."

Hello Jan H. Lessner,
It probably wasn't anything you did wrong. Both APA and HES do sell under their Graham Numbers. But the Graham Number was never intended to be used in isolation, and these two stocks don't meet the other supporting Defensive criteria.
Apache Corp fails the liabilities, debt and earnings stability criteria; and so does Hess Corp.
This Benjamin Graham Rule Encourages More Disciplined Investing [View article]
From Chapter 14 of The Intelligent Investor - Stock Selection for the Defensive Investor: "6. Current price should not be more than 15 times average earnings."
From Chapter 15 of The Intelligent Investor - Stock Selection for the Enterprising Investor: "issues selling at P/E multipliers under 10"
The Graham Price for a stock is the maximum price recommended by Graham for that stock. This price works out to the Graham Number for Defensive grade stocks, the Enterprising Price for Enterprising grade stocks, and the NCAV value for NCAV grade stocks. A lot of stocks do sell under their maximum Graham price for their Graham grade.

Hello keylay31,
The recommendation for a stock could change for the simple reason that its market price on that day exceeds Graham's maximum recommended price. Or it could be the result of a complete change in the stock's financials, such as a missing dividend or net losses reported for that fiscal year.
The annual refresh does a completely new Graham analysis for all 4000 stocks for the current year. The delta refresh recalculates each stock's analysis using the latest stock prices and any other updated financial data since the last annual refresh. The exact fields that change during a delta differ from day to day and from stock to stock. It could be just the price or the entire (very rare) balance sheet, EPS and dividend data.
