  Hi Charley,

  WON's studies from 1953 to 1985 showed that the average trailing PE =
for great growth stocks was 20. When they peaked, they averaged a =
trailing PE of 45, 2.25 the original levels. They then screened the best =
stocks going into the market peak in March 2000 and found that the =
average PE when they broke out was 44.8. When they peaked, they averaged =
a PE of 99.6, surprisingly, 2.2 times their PE on breakout. (Investor's =
Corner 6/9/00) His conclusion is that this does give some range of =
expectation for PE expansion during the stock's run.

  One way I like to evaluate the industry is to look at the current PEs =
relative to 5 year highs and lows. 5 years is often enough to catch at =
least one and in some cases, more than one economic/market cycle. And I =
wholeheartedly agree with you that comparing forward and/or trailing PEs =
of a stock relative to its industry/direct competitors is a great way to =
see if expectations are already built into the current price. I also =
like to compare the stock's ROE against others in the same industry, as =
it gives a measure of their relative ability to generate return on =
capital employed.

  It would be great to see the results from your study.

  Katherine

    Charley,

    The results of your study would be very interesting to the group, =
I'm sure.

      Tom: A few months ago one of the TV "bears" commented that a stock =
market recovery could not occur until the P/E ratio's fell =
significantly. In other words, stock prices are too high, or earnings =
too low. He noted that the S&P 500 Index P/E was (at the time) 28. Since =
I don't trust the S&P 500 Index averages I started to research the P/E =
ratio of Industry Groups, as defined by IBD. I am far from complete but =
my initial findings indicate that, with the exception of the technology =
sector, average P/E's really are not that high. Credit card companies =
like Capital One Finance (COF), and MBNA (KRB), have an average P/E of =
about 22; 8 points below the current S/P Index average.=20
      So, what is the point? I use this to determine if the stock P/E is =
in line with it's own industry. It could also be used to determine a =
target price to sell the stock in the future. While there are notable =
exceptions, (CSCO, QCOM, JDSU), most stocks get downgraded when they hit =
P/E ratios inconsistent with analyst projections, and this causes a =
price decline.=20
