Joel Greenblatt's definition of earnings yield has the same problems the regular earnings yield does. It does not consider the growth of the company. It only looks at one-year's business operation. For cyclical companies, the earnings yield is usually highest at the peak of the business cycle. But these earnings are rarely sustainable.

Oil Refineries's Forward Rate of Return (Yacktman) % for the quarter that ended in Mar. 2026 was 13.23%. The Forward Rate of Return uses the normalized Free Cash Flow of the past five years, and considers growth.
