Secular markets The long-term view of the stock market reflects extended periods of surge and stall. These periods, known as secular bull markets and secular bear markets are not optical illusions; rather they are extended periods when market valuations (i.e. price/earnings ratios: P/Es) are either multiplying the effect of rising earnings or mitigating them. Secular bull market periods have always started when P/Es were below average, and secular bear markets have never ended when P/Es were above average.
Average yearly stock market return Average Rarely Happens: returns from the stock market over decade-long periods have rarely averaged the historic 7.75%; it has most often been well above average or well below average. There is no single factor that has as much impact on the variability of total returns form stock market over decade-long periods as the change in the level of valuation (P/E ratio)
Markets are more volatile than you may think In the past 100 years, the annual change in stocks--half of the time--is more than 16%, either up or down.
Earnings Over the last 3 decades earnings on the stock market has grown at an average rate of 7.4%. This is in line with the combined GDP and CPI rate.
Inflations effect on PE The change in PE for the stock market is directly related to the change in inflation; when prices move away from price stability PEs tend to decrees and when prices (inflation) moves towards price stability PEs tend to increase.
P/E change in percent yoy The latest stock market rally have seen a change in PE over 60%. Ergo, this rally was purely driven by PE change.

Current market status P/E remains ‘slightly undervalued’ toward the lower end of the normalized valuation range; the stock market remains positioned for nearer-term above average returns (assuming that the economy is not expected to enter a multi-year period of significant deflation or relatively high inflation). Notwithstanding the nearer-term trend, remains aware that typical market volatility makes it increasingly likely that the market will experience significant short-term swings. The ‘reported’ measure of EPS and P/E, reflecting the most recent four quarters, continues to become less distorted as earnings recover from the recession.
