The companies underlying the U.S. stock market

may collectively be solvent. Just about.

Here's why:

***Fundamental Characteristics
Month Ending 2/28/2002
Total Market Value ($) 12.4 trillion
Mean Market Value ($) 2,082 million
Median Market Value ($) 120.7 million
Weighted Average Market Value ($) 83,132 million
Largest Company's Market Value ($) 382.2 billion
Smallest Company's Market Value ($) under 1 million
Median Share Price $9.56
P/E Ratio 33.3
Price/Book 6.08
Current Yield 1.35%***

So, this mess has "book value" of two trillion dollars
or so. Deduct a trillion at least for goodwill,
intangible assets and other fluff that banks are
unlikely to take as payment. Add debt hidden off
balance sheets and in SPE's - probably hundreds of
billions.

Do the math.
