What it is

How much you pay for each dollar of yearly company earnings. Higher means more expensive. S&P 500 price over earnings per share of the last 12 months. Part of the theme "Price of stocks": Whether US stocks are expensive or cheap relative to their earnings and to bonds.

How to read it

Higher means more risk. The colour compares today’s value with the indicator’s own last 10 years: "Good" is the most favourable third of its history, "Poor" the most strained. It describes the present and anticipates nothing.
