That is a very good point atacama. Watching P/e's like that is a method I used to use with great success to help me find when a stock was over or undervalued. A relative rating based on P/E's in many a stock like CSCO for instance can really help an investor find a good buy point. I for one would be very interested in hearing the results of any individual screens or stocks you run in this area. I used to use WSRN to find that information but then they became a paid site. Where are you getting your information now? Thanks, RTS

Atamaca, Thank you for your kind statements. I appreciate your comments regarding P/E ratios. I don’t know of any screening engines that give you industry P/E ratios, but I will look around. I will try to create some screens utilizing relative P/E ratios as RTS has suggested. If I make the screen industry specific, at least we can eyeball the P/E ratios of each company’s peers. Do you have a TA opinion on SUNW? I posted my reading of it earlier but I am fairly new to TA and would like to hear the opinion of someone who knows TA better than I do. I look forward to your return. B.K.
