>>, Joe made quite a stretch of logic:<<


No, sounds like deception at best and scamming at the worst. His election to AZW-dom was very much deserved and in hindsight, long overdue.

BK is still a Myth though...

Does Joe also report the equal-weighted performance of indexes? I mistrust he does not, since it is substantially lower than the usual cap-weighted variety. The S&P 500 went up 29% last year! But equal-weighted, the gain was a moderate 12.8%. I hesitate to imagine how low the equal-weighted NASDAQ, with all its little tiny companies, must have done. Even so, I suspect his average PE number is about right. The Russell 3000 simple average is near 25; the real number, however, accounting for weight, is nearer 30. But who buys anything but the top twenty companies any more? The PE there is 40. A bargain. <g> -mb

If I'm in and S&P 500 index fund and the big cap high pe stocks go down....msft, csco, dell, lu, wcom then my fund is going to decline in price quite a bit even if Joe B's lower PE stocks don't go down at all or do not go down by much.

I agree JB ( is that a brand of booze) was stretching his logic
