Why do general enterprises use PE for valuation and PB for financial industry valuation?
Price/earnings ratio: Price/earnings ratio

PB: price/book price-to-book ratio

The profit of the financial industry changes rapidly (for example, the prices of stocks and futures change all the time), so it is difficult to measure it by price-earnings ratio, and it is more unified to calculate it by PB according to accounting books.
