Dr. Siegel’s comments regarding the Valuation and Sentiment Indicators charts found below. September 1, 2015.
“The fall in earnings estimates (a prime reason for my bear call 3 weeks ago) has accelerated. 2015 operating earnings for the S&P 500 fell more than $3 over the past month to $111.64, more than a dollar under 2014 earnings, and reported earnings fell by nearly $3 to $100.59, also below 2014 levels. As late as April of this year analysts were expecting over $117 fo…r operating and over $110 for reported earnings. Such a slide is unprecedented outside of a recession. 2016 earnings estimates are down more modestly.
Investor sentiment has turned sharply negative, falling to more than 16% below trend. This is the lowest level since the Spanish and Greek debt crises of 2010 and 2011, and is very near the level where markets have often snapped back sharply. We may now be witnessing the ingredients of a market bottom.”
