I calculated this P/E as sum(price)/sum (earn/shr) from the numbers above. Note that the P/E is a lot lower than the average P/E of 24.13. I got these numbers from Yahoo: finance.yahoo.com I was honestly expecting the DOW P/E to be much higher. I wonder how the typical bear market bottom DOW P/E compares to 19.72? Might give a clue as to how low we can go... Regards, George
