Crazy P/E Ratios [view article]
GKM doesn't seem to know what he really meant. low PEs become so because the E is based on expected earnings for next year are assumed to be higher therefore PE seems low at current prices . But what happens is that by end of next year the E will go down because of recession and companies collectively will make much less E than was forcasted at this time so if E goes down by 25 % then your forcasted PE of 12 suddenly becomes 16 ReplyCrazy P/E Ratios [view article]
The market "may have priced in" anticipated 2009 earnings, but based on long term PE's, we're still in a bubble. seeseekingalpha.com/artic...

The stock market correction is a reality check for those stocks commanded high price but no real growth.Every so often the market corrected to re-evaluate the valuation of each stock.
As the market start to recover, some will recover 50%, some will recover 100% and some will recover 1000% depending on future growth potential.
Not all stocks will recover equally, now it's the time to look for the next growth leader of each sector...it's always a stock-picking game after each correction.
My pick for the next winner: Thermogenesis(KOOL), I think it's the early CSCO of stem cell therapy/regenerative medicine. Reply

jcrash, I'm saying if you think that p/e's look cheap - then they likely look cheap for a reason and that could only mean one thing. When they look expensive, that's when the market will be starting to rally again. ReplyCrazy P/E Ratios [view article]

CEG fell out of bed early September but I can't find any articles that explain what happened. Can anyone shed some light? ReplyCrazy P/E Ratios [view article]

As GKW points out..Do not get excited, P/Es will rise all the way down and "Investment Groups" of many shades will scratch their heads. Reply

Just bear in mind that Warren Buffett just bought CEG... one of those companies with the highest YTD% drops... & the 2nd highest in the list of P/Es.Granted, he has enough cash to weather anything... but his goal is to make more cash.
As for the world's involvment protecting us from droping into single digits... a broader market, a supposed greater spreading of risk, has made for a much more volitile situation. It seems to have enhanced the fear rather than containing it. Reply

Zoeey and tcal - Schillers data shows currently we are about at 15 or 16 based on 10 yr average earnings.Overcorrections to single digits as you propose do no happen in every downturn and actually only happen about 3 times in the last 90 years. One of those was the decade of inflation, one was the WWII era, and one was briefly during the depression.
However, the greater macro trend you are ignoring is the greater participation in the stock markets. More capital chasing the same earnings means higher P/E's. So, if we get to single digits, I'd be more than shocked.
Technically, 8000 on the Dow and 850 or so on the S&P looks pretty impenetrable.
Boomers are committed at this point, if they take it out now, they are pretty much sure to miss the start up and then pile in to create one hell of a bounce. If they stay in, they will be committed to adding even more at these levels.
Additionally, recent tax changes have created a large demand in college savings accounts. Those monies are relatively new and will continue to grow with acceptance. Finally, while you might think foreigners would desert us, the truth is that their is no substitute - no country with a better combination of innovation/security and size. This is quite in evidence this week with the turn in the Euro and the European banks.
We will print up as much as it takes to keep the boat afloat and folks will buy it and be glad their money is safe in times like this. They cannot leave us in the bad times - they will have to wait and try it in the good times. Reply

So, GKM are you saying P/E's look low or P/E's look high? ReplyCrazy P/E Ratios [view article]
Just fyi, P/E's are always lowest at the top of the market and highest at the bottom. If you think about it, you should understand why that would be so. ReplyCrazy P/E Ratios [view article]
So if you think the P/E is reasonable , what about the PEG though? Its all about the sales growth outlook isn't it? In any event, please just make sure you are disciplined to have a protective exit strategy in place for yourself. One that is constantly adjusting to the stock's behavior and market conditions.

The PE on SP5 is historically around 15, but today about 22 as of 9/30, Trailing five years is higher yet ~28. Usually the market will over correct to something like 9 or 8 before the correction is run out. The falling prices today mean that earnings must fall substantially to reach the required, or traditional, under ratio of below 15. By these guidelines there is one hell of a lot of grief left to go. But I suspect a bear market rally will intervene before the next act of violence. Z Reply
