Current P/E for SPX500 as of 2/27/2009 was 28.90 to 1.
Given the earnings for the next two quarters are seen by realist as being WORSE then this current SPX500 level is WAY TOO HIGH.
Want scary? In 74/75 and 81/82 SPX did not bottom until about 7-1.
But a P/E level of 15-1 is what would be reasonable(it hit that in 2002) in this Bear, and what price would that be to be now at 15-1, SPX500 of 382.

The bleak forecasts are all QUITE REASONABLE.
Any major rally would DEMAND we hit P/E not seen since March, 2000.
People need grasp the P/E in the SPX is saying loud and clear, this market is OVERPRICED.
