Shiller PE uses a 10 year trailing PE so when stocks drop in PE it only has a 1/10th influence on their PE but inflation is build in directly so the Shiller PE is high. That's why the Shiller PE is terrible to use for current valuation. It can be used for long term (decades) prediction of future returns e.g. the next 10y market returns might be lower than the last (no need to be negative btw). This can also happen even further in the future so that's why Shiller PE is only useful if you think in decades but as you regards already forgot the beginning of the comment it doesn't really matter img

I gave you the reason you asked for. This is not about bull markets or not. It's about that Shiller PE doesn't weight the current valuation very high. If todays market would drop to 0 and no change in inflation so a PE of 0 the Shiller PE would drop from 29 to 26 that's how much a year worth of PE is weighted.

You're an idiot if you think that a single data point is indicative of anything.

Shiller declared his own PE ratio as not practical in the past years bcs of the interest rates. Read the interview from 2020

But interest rates were 0% at that time. I doubt he would have ever thought that we would be here at 5% in 2023.

Earnings have gone up quite a lot over the last 10 years and as the Shiller PE takes an average of the last 10 years earnings, it will mean it's using a lower average earnings than todays earnings for it calculation.

Combine that with todays prices not actually being very cheap, it's resulting in a high Shiller PE. As long as earnings remain the same (or increase) even if stock prices don't go up the Shiller PE will start to come down over the next few years.

There is a new generation of investor who are dip buyers …. And the shiller PE ratio will only make sense if they incorporate dip Buyers into formulating new PE.

ps …. all financial stock metrics should be reevaluated to include dip buyers .
