The big unknowns are….can we envisage a trough in the ISM and consumption within 3-6 months? We would suggest yes, but the near term decline will be sharp. Aside from attempting to factor in market bottoms, are valuations attractive? At 14 times trend EPS the US market currently reflects the average of 4 very different eras. The concept of “cheapness” depends very much on whether any of these past eras are relevant going forward.
