“To be named ‘cheap’, markets had to be trading below their own historic valuation across all three measures. As the map to the left shows, only a handful of stock markets managed to achieve this feat – Greece, China, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Russia and Turkey. In red are the countries that scored badly on all three metrics. America, Sri Lanka, Pakistan and Indonesia are all trading on valuations that are higher than their historic averages across each of the measures. Investors are buying high. The main reason for the lofty valuations is that these stock markets have performed well in recent years. This pulled in other investors and has left these markets substantially overpriced.”
