How expensive is the S&P 500 right now? Four ways to count.
- Price/Sales: 3.5x (all-time high, higher than 2000)
- Price/Book: 5.5x (all-time high)
- Forward P/E: 26x (at the 2000 dotcom peak)
- Dividend Yield: 1% (near a record low)
Three of these are at levels last seen at the dotcom peak.
The fourth one is the price you're paying for the privilege.

@johnspurlock it's in podcasting too. bad actors use bot network, limited to 1x per day for IAB, so they create a ton of AI shows
fortunately we're doing a good job at identifying them and blocking them, but they are filled with ads from Libsyn, Simplecast, etc.
