As of February 2012, the S&P 500 is again at a multiple of over 22 times cyclically adjusted earnings

I've read some data suggesting the S&P 500 PE ratio is closer to the middle of the 10 - 20 historic range. This blog suggests an S&P 500 PE ratio of under 14. The other day, someone on Decision Point was noting a PE ration of 15 ~ the middle of the historic range.

I'd bet someone here has an accurate source for the PE ratio of the S&P 500.

My hunch is stocks rally into the close, but that's just a wild guess...
