CBA - Commonwealth Bank of Australia

J P Morgan 1 of the Biggest banks in the world trading at 12.86 x Earnings

CBA....the Biggest here is Trading at 30.84 X earnings

I feel for people who go in at it's current price because i do believe at some point they will be hurt!!

Is this Happening because the super funds have nowhere else to put their money??
And for those that took up the share offer when it was peanuts, they are laughing all the way to the bank.

.... and, amongst the angst of underweight fund managers & instos, more to inflame the divide....

Interesting maybe article on our new wonder stock
also, the "free float" is narrowed by early investors , and I'm thinking many in retail which is 47% of shareholders, see ^^ post #1066 and all that, sitting and holding.

It is Australia's GameStop!!!
Nail the bastards, do not sell plus index funds, an infinite feedback loop..the sky is the limit..
And hardly joking , think about it : CBA SP jumps 10%, all asx index funds must increase their CBA shares by roughly 1.3%, SP up:
rince and repeat, plus add retail gamblers
If this was structurally sound, other banks would follow path and double PE.
But this is what it is, market is never wrong;
dumb, stupid or idiotic but never wrong.

Well i am all wrong it seems...
Not sure i agree with all the arguments, for exay no-one ever said that new money is required in etf to add to CBA, the index adjustment are often just rebalancing: off BHP ,other major index components to CBA.
But i thought ETFs were a bigger force.
Super funds might emulate ETF index mirroring and this is opaque yet enormous..
Always happy to be proven wrong, progress is made that way
 
around $179

and a nuanced pile on as to why CBA is expensive. by John Abernathy


. still holding after all these years
 
the last 4 weeks has seen CBA settle at a lower elevated level, it would seem.

onward to next month's second half Report.

Every analyst says it is only worth what I sold it for, before it took off towards $200.

F. all the analysts, F. me. It's there at $180 and I can't see it coming down.

gg
@Garpal Gumnut The only analysts who are correct are the buyers who bought in and then sold at either a profit or great profit.
Of course those who bought in back in the eon ago and are still holding are maybe the smart ones, waiting for perhaps that magical $200 to hit.
 
the XJO filtered by current share price

is this irrational exuberance

after all if CBA is over-valued what about the more expensive stocks higher on the list

As far as I am concerned, it been a while now, nothing make senses since Trumpeter doing his concert.
Its us, the people power, we decide which stock we are going to put our money, regardless of what the gurus said in TA or FA.
It would be good if CBA can join the $200 club.
