Are shares really worth less today?

Article Abstract:

Recent research offers a valuable insight into the various issues associated with equity valuation. The most recent issue of 'The International Bank Credit Analyst' indicates that the period of under-performance of UK equities will shortly come to an end. UK shares have relatively little downside risk and a lot of upside potential, at least compared with US securities. Research from Sushil Wadhawani at Tudor Investment Corp indicates that the US equity market is highly valued by historical standards and that there are currently above-average risks linked with the world economy.

At last the market rewards those who make real things

Article Abstract:

There has been a substantial revival in the shares of traditional manufacturing companies, while high-tech stocks, which have been very popular over recent years, have declined. One explanation for this shift in investor sentiment is that fashions and trends in investment constantly change. Another possible explanation is that traditional ideas about value are beginning to replace new fashionable ideas about growth. This means that investors will become much more suspicious about new investment opportunities.
