Porc, It seems that each of our goals is to create the "Margin of Safety". We each choose a different manner to accomplish this objective. As you know, I utilize a 15 point scoring system. One of the factors is whether the TTM PE ratio is less than the projected growth rate of EPS. I will be the first to concede that I believe the DJIA stocks are unique in that the Return on Equity is more important than the PE ratio. However, let's look at how the PE of the DJIA compared to their EPS projected growth rates: EPS PROJ SYMBOL PE GROWTH RATIO GM 8.0 7.8 1.0 MO 16.9 15.6 1.1 CAT 12.5 10.2 1.2 S 17.7 14.4 1.2 UK 10.3 7.9 1.3 AA 15.7 11.6 1.4 MMM 16.9 12.1 1.4 UTX 21.2 14.8 1.4 ALD 21.1 14.3 1.5 HWP 22.8 15.3 1.5 TRV 21.9 14.6 1.5 AXP 21.7 13.8 1.6 IBM 17.4 10.8 1.6 JPM 16.7 9.5 1.8 MCD 23.8 13.0 1.8 CHV 16.1 8.3 1.9 GT 19.3 9.2 2.1 DIS 39.0 17.5 2.2 WMT 29.7 13.2 2.3 JNJ 31.3 13.8 2.3 MRK 34.1 14.3 2.4 KO 41.8 17.3 2.4 GE 31.6 13.0 2.4 T 21.5 8.6 2.5 PG 32.8 12.9 2.5 DD 29.5 11.3 2.6 XON 18.9 6.9 2.7 EK NM 10.5 NM IP NM 6.6 NM BA NM 18.0 NM But then, the next few days could radically change these ratios.
