What should I pay for the sp500 if inflation continues?
Where is fair value and where is cheap? Price and value are not the same. Price is snapshot of opinion while value is a moving story that changes over time.
PE price to earnings is how we gauge value, at least one of the main ways. I like to think of PE in terms of years. How many years of earnings am I paying in advance for this underlying business?. It helps me realize that there's a big picture story in every asset that will take time to play out.
Everything has fair value as well as premium and discount values. If we dont do the homework, we are just guessing and gambling. A dollar today is worth more than a dollar in one year. The current market interest rates is how we price the cost of time difference of money flows. Using interest rates to discount is how we calculate if an assets is expensive, fair, or discounted.
