Take a look at MarketPlayer (www.marketplayer.com). Scroll to the bottom of their page and click on "charting". You can plot price vs PE or price vs earnings, etc. I find it very good. 3 time scales from 6 months to 10 years. All of the earnings numbers are current estimates for following 12 months earnings. The site explains why they feel this is a better earnings number than others. I really like the site, specifically for trying to establish what is a reasonable PE range and therefor price range for a particular stock. In the case of LLTC, (using their earnings numbers, don't forget) it looks like a reasonable range is from 22x-30x, therefor from $58-$78. The low end agrees with the "magic" 100x next quarter's earnings of $58 for an excellent buy point.

Stuart.
