Maybe it is cheap, or perhaps it is fairly valued. This is the third in a series examining the issue. Still, it has been my contention that it does not make any difference because no matter how the market is valued as a whole, there are plenty of cheap stocks out there to accommodate a large amount of capital allocation even this deep into a bull run. <br />

If you would like to follow along from the beginning, the initial post screened stocks for lower than market average P/E ratios: <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2010/01/28/serious-money-market-looks-cheap-to-me-35-stocks/" title="View Serious Money: Market Looks Cheap to Me -- 35 Stocks on BloggingStocks" target="_blank">Serious Money: Market Looks Cheap to Me -- 35 Stocks</a>.

Recently one of our active readers commented that the market P/E was 30, which it's not. The <a href="http://business.ezineseeker.com/s-p-500-pe-ratio-forecast-2010-2011-14e5ff1ceb.html">actual rate (S&amp;P forecast) has been even higher at times</a> due to the volatile market.<br /> <br /> The average should trend closer to the long term P/E of 15.7 in the next few years. However, I have reviewed companies often covered on our site and come up with a list of 35 stocks that have price-to-earning ratios below the long-term average already. I think there are dozens of bargains regardless of the status of the overall market.<p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2010/01/28/serious-money-market-looks-cheap-to-me-35-stocks/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Serious Money: Market Looks Cheap to Me -- 35 Stocks</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2010/01/28/serious-money-market-looks-cheap-to-me-35-stocks/">Serious Money: Market Looks Cheap to Me -- 35 Stocks</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Thu, 28 Jan 2010 15:00:00 EST.
