You may be right about loosening of the requirements. Personally, I keep "good" business requirement and loosen P/B and P/E, i.e. go for Buffett approach. And try to remember Graham's quote: "The risk of paying too high price for good-quality stocks is not* the chief hazard... Chief losses ... come from purchase of low quality securities at times of favorable business conditions"* People fast forget what happened when they bought crappy stocks at <10 P/E with high D/E in 2007-2008.
