"The highest returns from 1990 to 1996 came from companies selling at over 100x. Did you know that? Montgomery published the study." Isn't this just a simple volatility issue? Stocks selling at over 100x are likely to be volatile, with big swings up and down. Montgomery may simply have looked at a subset of stocks selling at over 100x - that went up. I'm sure a lot of stocks selling at over 100x didn't produce huge returns. Analysts can manipulate numbers easily enough to tell any story.
