PE of 12.. don't be so generous MB. Most of this trash ain't worth 5x with the huge amounts of debt and few assets.

Mike, I tried to find an article by William R. Emmons of the St. Louis Fed " The Current PE Ratio: Higher than You Think" he makes the point that the current PE is at an unprecedented high for peak earnings. He points out that earnings declined 30% during the 89-91 recession . The New ERA folks don't worry about recessions because the fed has tamed the business cycle. -g- The site has been reorganized and i can't link Emmons name yet. Mike
