In the June 21st Issue of Barrons they published a Stock Valuation Model that was based on the the Ratio of the S&P 500 to "Fair Value". They define Fair Value as Consensus Operationg Earnings For The S&P500 For The NEXT 12 Months divided By The Yield On The 10 year Treasury. They published the end result of 42%. Does anyone know how the actual calculation? I have not been able to duplicate their results with my information from 6/21 which is list below:
s&P500 1342.84
10Yr Treasury Yield 5.89%
Project Earning For S&P500 For The Next 12 Months $54.00
Please Help!
