Big Issues
Seen in the context of risk versus return, and especially the issues surrounding the equity risk premia (ERP), and with reference to long-term valuation techniques, it is not clear to me that current times are any more uncertain than they always have been. Moreover, as indicated by a high ERP and many regions of the world’s equity markets remaining so cheap compared to long-term valuations, this suggests that many are too obsessed about these supposed uncertainties.
