<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>I ran across and interesting article in Barrons' 
last week that talks about the &quot;Greenspan indicator&quot;&nbsp; Basically 
it compares the earnings yield to the 10 year yield on Treasury notes where the 
earnings yield = forecasted</FONT><FONT color=#000000 size=2> profits next 12 
months/ s and p 500 value.&nbsp; </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Yardeni in the article mentions that there is 
trouble when the equity market is 20-30% overvalued.&nbsp; We currently stand at 
10%.&nbsp; The obvious problem with this model is the ability to forecast 
profits since analysts are so often wrong.&nbsp; If profits are less than 
expected we can see higher risk in this market at least through Greenspans 
eyes.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Any opinions, comments?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>What sources do people use that forecast S and P 
earnings.&nbsp; Are any of these considered the &quot;gold 
standard&quot;?</FONT></DIV>
