Growth against the P/E multiple. Up and to the right is cheaper and faster — the quality-growth idea in one picture. Points beyond the axis are pinned to the edge and marked off-scale rather than allowed to compress everything else.

Utilities - Regulated Electric · $1.92 · beta 0.06
Why now
Utilities - Regulated Electric · market cap n/a. Down 30% from 52-week high of $2.76 — deep drawdown territory. PEG 0.33 — paying under fair value for the growth rate. 3 sell-side analysts publish a mean 1-yr target of $2.14 (implying +11% upside).
Moat
Net margin 18% beats the market median by a meaningful margin — the company is keeping more of every revenue dollar than the average S&P constituent. ROE 26% — top-decile capital efficiency. Either pricing leverage, low capital intensity, or aggressive buybacks; the durability story depends on which.
Risk
Down 30% from the 52-week high — the market is pricing in something the screen can't see; verify the bear case before sizing up. Dividend payout 80% of earnings on a 9.2% yield — distribution coverage is thin; one earnings stumble could force a dividend cut.
KEPKorea Electric Power Corporation
Utilities - Regulated Electric · $11.26 · beta 0.83
Why now
Utilities - Regulated Electric · market cap $14.5b. Down 52% from 52-week high of $23.41 — deep drawdown territory. PEG 0.44 — paying under fair value for the growth rate.
Moat
Moat signals from the quantitative card are modest — profitability and capital efficiency are middle-of-pack. The thesis here depends on softer factors (switching costs, brand, distribution, regulatory protection) not captured by the quality-growth screen.
Risk
Down 52% from the 52-week high — the market is pricing in something the screen can't see; verify the bear case before sizing up.
