re: No matter how you look at the market, the valuation of SP 500 right now is higher than those of the beginning of the previous bear markets it is very naive to assume that valuation of S&P 500 has to be the same as it was during previous bear market. in the past inflation was in double digit numbers, were now is under 3 % lower inflation, higer valuation of S&P500 every economist and analyst will tell you the same ZO

Larry: > Sure they don't deserve such lofty valuations when growth rate is meager or negative. At the same time you need also to consider the amount of money they generate compare to previous bear markets! basically what you are saying is if a Company that used to generate $1 in revenue 10 years ago and had a valuation of $10 with a growth rate of 20%, should have the same valuations now when it is generating $5 in revenue (or 45 times more than what it did 10 years ago) and still has a growth rate of 20%!!!!!! Surely you dont mean this!
