Stocks are the Most Expensive, Well, Ever

I jabber a lot about valuation metrics here, and I mentioned this one on Twitter the other day.  Its doesn’t need much explanation – the median stock in the S&P 500 is the most expensive it has even been (for as long as we have data).  That’s never a good sign!

If your favorite valuation indicator is not at “the highest ever” , many valuation indicators and now at “the highest ever except 2000”.  That’s not good company unless you are a short seller.
