Yes, I am aware that many favor the use of PSR at the bottom of a cycle, and I have a copy of a previous post (from Teri, I think) which gives PSR history for previous downturns, but I have not heard anyone quoting PSR on the S&P500, so I don't know if such a statistic is available. My object is to try to compare the valuation of the S&P500 between July 1996 and now, to try to estimate how much of a premium should be applied for overall market valuation. If PSR is not available, then comparing the S&P500 P/E between then and now might be a reasonable substitute.
