Interesting observation on a Chart of the average p/e ratio's of companies comprising the S&P 500 dating back to 1980's.

If we look back to Jan 1980 the average p/e ratio of an S & P component was around ~7....it peaked in 1988 at ~22, dipped back to 10 by 1990...peaked again at around 26 in 1993, dipped back to 15 by 1996 and finally peaked again at 35 in Jan 2000....if the charts are our clue and play out accordingly (which they have done perfectly for 20 years)....then the S&P should find strong support when the p/e averages ~15...

Even more interesting considering many S & P components are slashing earnings expectations daily....
