Sounds like a good time to invest...?!? What is happening with financial assets? What is the average PE? Regards Victor Sorry I'm a bit lost with this message. Do you average P/E of Aus market? About 17. The big dif between here and US is that the dividend payout rate is much higher. This is due to the dividend imputation system vs. high rates of capital gains tax. So valuation of the Aus market is cheaper than the US on both counts. However, growth rates are lower due to all that payout. David
