I use a wide variety of financial ratios to make decisions about my portfolio. These ratios are helpful in determining the robustness of the company’s policies and its financial health. One of the most important financial ratios is Price Earnings ratio. This ratio tells the relationship between the stock’s current trading price and its earnings.

All else being equal, lower Price Earnings ratio is considered to be better as it denotes that the stock is comparatively cheaper to buy in comparison to its peers. However, as with all the investment metrics, even this ratio should not be used in isolation and you should carry out proper fundamental analysis of the stock you are deciding about. So, here is my list of top technology stocks under $10 with good P/E ratio:

Dell Inc. (NASDAQ:DELL): Once a tech behemoth, the company is now struggling in the post-PC era but it is not down and out yet and is looking to adapt itself to the changed environment. Dell is currently trading at $9.59, up 0.31 percent from its previous close of $9.56. The stock is trading at the Price Earnings ratio of 5.66. It has traded in the range of $9.35 and $18.36 in the past 52 weeks and is currently hovering around its lowest price point. However, the stock is trading above its 20 days moving average price of $9.54 and 50 days moving average price of $9.55. Dell has market capitalization of $16.60 billion and its stock is trading at beta of 1.40.  Citigroup has given Sell verdict on the stock. The analysts are concerned about the company’s ability to survive in the emerging mobile computing market. The company is now gearing to get its market position back in the wake of introduction of Windows 8. Dell is also trying to go through mergers and acquisition. It has made a couple of acquisitions but these transactions have failed to make any impact on the company’s fortunes. Dell reported its latest Earnings per share at $1.68.
