The PE ration is not only a reflection of value, but also of the temporarily depressed profits of a large part of the economy.
If profits doubled, by a miraculously effective vaccine, for example, the PE instantly drops in half. Add the rediculously low interest rates, and it would be historically low.
And, looky here, the market futures jumped almost 5% on Pfizer’s announcement of a successful vaccine trial this morning...
Glad I didn’t selll quite yet.

Just saw the headline on Yahoo finance......"Markets soar on upbeat vaccine news, Biden victory". No bias there whatsoever.

We have a couple of different 401ks and IRA's. Two are already in money market accounts. One i just have about $70k in that I was day trading a bit with earlier this year. The largest one is in mutual funds and bond funds. Its spread across about 10 funds and we pretty much just leave it alone and ride the ups and downs.
However, I told the financial advisor a few weeks ago to find a money market or some fund that's extremely low risk because I want to park it around the election. He gave me tge old don't time the market speech and reassured me Trump was going to win. I told him I worried the left was pushing mail ins because they have a plan to steal the election. So here we are. I'm going to park another 150k or so Monday.
Are you guys just planning to let it ride or have you moved into low risk stuff for now? I think I can still take 100k out this year with no penalty. I don't want to pay the tax but it may get taxed lower this year than it will in future years if the theft sticks.
I've also considered moving some to a precious metals IRA.ļ

Sure glad I didn't park mine. I still have 10 years before I can do much with my 401(k) so I'm going to let it ride. Was nice to make 20K this morning. Hopefully it will not disappear tomorrow.

Trump just printed 6 trillion. The market is going to ride high at least through the end of the year. Yep, not selling or shelving anything. Biden will likely add a few trillion in stimulus. Things *should* be good. My TD Ameritrade account is up $17,500 today, and that's a $100K acct that is mostly energy and REITS....

The markets responded to a divided congress, and a possible end to the Rona by the end of next year.
A blue wave we would all be buying gold and guns. Democrats are chit on free markets.

Wait until Nasty Nancy & Chunky Smucky get their act going with new taxes & an uncontrollable deficit spending spree on top of what's already in place. Did I mention inflation? Rising interest rate?
