41. U got it about right

China fell through the floor today, with the A share market P/E in enviable territory compared to that of the S&P 500. (charts in above link)

To get to the level of the Asian markets, (if my math is right) the S&P 500 would require a "retrenchment" :nuke: back to the lows of last year. To get to the historic bear market P/E's, often placed in the range of 10, would "shave" :sarcasm: another 450 or so points from the index.

But you won't get to those numbers using the saccharinated (new word I think) numbers tossed out by the MSM. You will if you use the real earnings filed with the SEC.

YMMV
