This means that the SPX is still twice the mean PE ratio of the SPX over the past 50 years which is 15-16.

This causes me to ask something I have no idea how to answer: Will expensing stock options, with the resulting increase in P/E, create an "apples to apples" comparison with the historic norms, or are there so many other differences in accounting standards now, as compared to then, that such a comparison will always be inherently flawed?
