That article is BS. S&P accounting methods put valuations at around 35 P/E currently, if memory serves.

You cannot properly account for historic P/E's without taking current P/E's and expensing options and doing away with pro-forma BS and special charges that were not excluded from earnings in the past.

Doing that paints a far different picture.

That guy must have needed the money Barrons was paying for that article.
