Wily, you are tiring me.

Forget all about book value and any other figures derived from it. ROE is earnings divided by book value. Book value figures, and other figures that depend on them, are worthless for fast growing companies. They are the name of the game for asset based companies, though, like utilities or railroads, I think. Don't worry about book value or ROE when it comes to RMBS, INTC, MSFT, and the like. While your average happened to be close to one, if you plot one against the other you will find no correlation.
