FDM1,

Great information, thanks.

It would be interesting to see the PEG as well. And if you look at the historical/current PE's vs. PEG's, you might get a compelling argument against or for current valuations on many of those stocks.

The acid test is forward earnings growth rates, and of course that's a guess.

John

Interesting table...

Those triple digit tech P/e ratios (orcl, csco) really stand out,as does GE's p/e of 45,which seems very high for an old economy stock with projected 14.5% earnings growth. Ditto WMT.

Of course,if the US economy slows, "e" side of the ratio is likely to decline, though this might be offset by better performance in EU and Asia. Bottom line is that we are a long ways above any real fundamental support.
