    I'm having issues finding:

    Enterprise Value/Revenue,
    Enterprise Value,
    Market Cap,
    PEG Ratio,
    Trailing P/E

    on: http://www.reuters.com/finance/stocks/financialHighlights?symbol=GOOG.O

    I do see "Market Cap" on the Overview page.

    If the information is not on any of the Reuters pages I'll have to find another resource for that.

      That 5-Year Dividend growth is the hardest trick, you may have to use multiple sites. Speed was not a criteria on purpose :-)
