OK, I just watched Consuelo Mack's interview with Robert Kessler. I agree with his viewpoint while bearing in mind he is a bond guy. Although he did not mention The Shiller Index he did refer to P/E ratios being very, very high. The Shiller Index closed Friday at 33.15, still about double its median and mean. He also mentioned that when stocks dive it usually is about 50%. It could be even more under present valuations IMHO. His offhand remarks about financials advisors caused me to chuckle as they were right on the mark.

Looks like he is about my age and enormously wealthy. Repo Man Robert Kessler used the repo market to help his clients earn 24% returns last year on Treasury bonds. What does he know that others don't? - September 15, 2003
