Roger and everyone else--

I'm trying to find on the Web something that Bloomberg has: analyst estimates for earnings on the S&P 500 index. While I don't ordinarily pay much heed to analyst estimates, the ones for the coming quarter (or soon-to-be-trailing 12 months) on the S&P have been pretty accurate--probably because the S&P earnings are updated quarterly, whereas the numbers for the individual companies are streaming in throughout the quarter. In essence, the analysts have actual numbers to work from.

I use the current (i.e., trailing twelve months) S&P 500 P/E for certain portfolio allocation decisions. I've moved away from Bloomberg and would like to make the transition total. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
