The week's question

The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Hi everyone, long time no see.

Checking in on the current BRK price to peak book value I find that the most recent book value per A share is $464,454, and that's also the peak value thus far, while the current price of an A share is $742,457 for a price to peak book ratio of 1.6.

That's a moderately high level associated with 1 year forward return of about 2%, in the past.

The S&P 500 is sitting at CAPE of ~39.5, which is very high indeed, and an Excess CAPE Yield of ~1.6 which is on the low side, both indicating over-valuation.
