Lesson of the Week

 

Howard Marks: “When you buy the S&P 500 at a 23x P/E, your 10-yr annualized return has always fallen between +2% and –2%, IN EVERY CASE, EVERY CASE.” Today, the market sits at a 25x P/E. Add inflation… and your “returns” are negative. 

 

Line chart titled Shiller Cyclically-Adjusted S&P Price-Earnings Ratio with Change overlaid, y-axis from 5 to 50, x-axis years 1925 to 2025, blue bars mark productivity booms in 1919-1929 and 1996-2000, red line shows rising ratio to high levels recently.
