Re: "1. PE ratios are currently at historic highs on the S&P. Does it make sense to buy the Index or dollar cost average into the index at these levels for a possible 10% advance?"

Let me carry your thought one step further: Is it ever worth investing in stocks, if the long term average annual return is only 10%? The idea of a 10% advance being insignificant is yet another sign of how spoiled we investors have become over the last few years.

Who knows, maybe we'll never see market returns significantly greater than 10% again.

Best wishes,
