Walter, * OT PE charts * I bought a membership in 'Investors' Alliance' for $90 per year. This gets you the program, called 'Power Investor' and free daily data base upgrades for stocks and mutual funds. The data base includes fundamentals and can be screened by any criteria imaginable, even the companies' zip code. You can download a free demo at freequote.com Just click on 'Power Investor' when you're there. As a member, you get a CD-ROM with historical data. You probably noticed that the PE chart does not extend all the way to the right. It looks like it cuts off at the last earnings report. Also, I would recommend spot checking a PE point against another data source. The earnings used are trailing 12 months, I think. The program also provides PE high/lows for several years. Plots of price-to-sales ratios can also be made. If you want other PE charts, I can send them by e-mail, so you can see if they are useful to you. The time scale can be adjusted. GM
