Sarah Palin: Wall Street's Candidate

The republicans need better ideas for the economy than lower taxes. That theory doesn't really work and we are just going to go more into debt as a nation. This hands off approach to the economy has not been working.

There needs to be balance into the economy between supply and demand, instead of this supply side nonsense.

P/E Ratios and Inflation

This is nonsense

A true value investor will compare the future discounted cash flows to risk free rate of return. What you have to do is compare the S&P 500 P/E yield (assuming it is an accurate measure of DCF) to the treasury rates.

The ten year treasury bond trading at about 4% trades at a P/E of 25 to put things in perspective. A value investor would be comparing their stock's or index's performance to this number.
