« Another 25 Points | Main | De Beers Finds Shipwreck, Treasure From Columbus Era » May 1, 2008 The S&P 500 and EarningsHere's a chart of the S&P 500 (black line, left scale) and its earnings (yellow line, right scale). I scaled this graph at a ratio of 16-to-1, so whenever the lines cross, the P/E ratio is exactly 16. As you can see, even as the market has risen and sold off, the market is basically following earnings pretty closely.
