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
