    December 7 , 2011 Stoc ks are less a t t rac t ive on Benchmark Valuat ions Update

    Yesterday I gave you all the key levels that provide overhead resistances in my prediction that

    stocks will not see new highs this year. Today is the fundamental story following benchmarkrevisions from ValuEngine.

    Benchmark Changes to ValuEngine Valuations and Forecasts: At the beginning of each monthValuEngine performs benchmark revisions based upon revised data from their data vendors.Sometimes the revisions are minor. Sometimes they are significant as they were yesterday.

    Since August the stock market has seen mindboggling volatility such as the weakest Thanksgivingweek since 1932 followed by one of the strongest weeks ever. At the February highs more than 65% oall stocks were overvalued, which was a ValuEngine Valuation Warning. This was when the yield onthe 30-Year bond tested 4.791. Then on October 4th we showed 93.5% of all stocks undervalued withthe 30-Year yield at 2.692. This was a major reason for stocks to move from rich at the highs to

    cheap at the lows.

    Changes to benchmark revisions also includes; Twelve Month Trailing EPS and Twelve MonthForward EPS Estimates. Today, only 70.9% of all stocks are undervalued.

    There has been a major change to Sector Valuations. Nine sectors are overvalued and sevensectors are undervalued in a range from 10.7% undervalued to 12.3% overvalued. This is quite a shiftfrom sixteen sectors undervalued with fifteen by double-digit percentages.

    The weakened overall valuations picture supports my prediction that stocks have seen their highs forthe year, and perhaps after year end I can forecast that the highs in 2011 will not be seen in 2012.

    10-Year Note (2.082) Daily, semiannual, quarterly and annual value levels are 2.203, 2.414, 2.669and 2.690 with a weekly pivot at 2.135, the 50-day simple moving average at 2.056, and semiannualand monthly risky levels at 1.672 and 1.602.

    Comex Gold ($1732.2) Semiannual and annual value levels are $1469.9, $1644.8 and $1,356.5with quarterly and daily pivots at $1738.4 and $1760.8, and weekly and monthly risky levels at$1808.4 and $1873.8, and the September 6th all time high at $1923.7. The 50-day simple movingaverage is a support at $1703.2. The years low was $1535.0 set on September 26 th.
