ABBV, AMP, BDX, BMY, D, EOG, FLO, KMI, LMT, MO, PM, SRE, T, WBA

ABBV's P/E ratio is at 41.09; still high I think.

Ken,

You seem willing to put in the analytics time and you should if you grow largish holdings in individual stocks.  This is a place to spend some time because a PE without context is just a number.

ABBV PE vs MSFT PE vs a REIT PE really is meaningless to an investor.  S&P500 PE numbers 2005-2015 vs today has some relevance.  It's highly likely historicals won't be completely ignored forever.  It's not a given 1990 will ever matter again though.  Don't hold you breath waiting for UTE PEs to return to 1980 levels.  The game changed.  1999 tech PEs were and still are nuts.  There are limits to valuation insanity that can't be explained away.  There is always context to consider.

Healthcare/pharma PEs would be a good place to learn.  First of all the entire sector is undervalued vs SPY.  There is risk they will be targeted by politicians from both parties.  That may or may not last for years.  Almost all the major pharmas are being discounted some for that.  As an ABBV shareholder you should be very aware their flagship drug comes off patent in 2023. Only a few drugs with this kind of revenue on earth and it's not a given they replace it by then.  Its highly unlikely they will with a single drug but they have a great pipeline so they will get through it IMO.  Maybe they have zero growth for a year or more?  You are being compensated for the risk now.  There is always a reason why a blue chip is on sale for an extended period of time.  In ABBV case it is extremely easy to research.  

I don't even own ABBV though I now regret I didn't grab the super sale 18 months ago.  I do own JNJ-PFE-MRK and a lot of BMY.  BMY is also discounted.  BMY has to show the market the money after their big merger.  They have considerable debt like ABBV. JNJ has one of the best credit ratings in the world.  We are pretty sure what their 2023 earnings look like so it is not extremely undervalued now.  We get paid to take risks.  If I don't bother to investigate the other major players in the sector I should buy a healthcare ETF.  You obviously watch the day to day moves on your stocks.  Knowledge keeps you from over-reacting to random sector moves that are going to happen for no obvious reason.  ABBV PE is nothing like 40 so you have work to do before you even comment on their valuation.

Some expensive names here. Gives you an idea that any hiccup with these names, and they will get punished. As of now I have no stocks with a PE over 30.  That’s the way I’m playing the market going forward.

You cant use current PE on any stock as that doesn't tell the story.  When we buy a stock where not buying it for today, but for the future and long time. Isn't that the reason why we have this forum lol

I added to ABBV just now on ex-dividend day.
Also added a significant position in JEPI

And oil stocks are still very cheap when you use forward PE

CVX - 17 PE
EOG - 11 PE
XOM - 16 PE

MSFT PE 33 (so not bad for a tech name)
AVGO - 16
AAPL - 27
TSM - 31
AMAT - 18

Still a few under 20 with AMAT and AVGO. Just a few names to compare with

So there is some value in the market still. Just have to know where to find it.
