Where to find the FTSE 100 / 250 / UK All Share PE ratios?
Discussion
Does anyone know, or can direct me to a site where I can view the current and historic PE ratios of the 100, 250 and All Share indexes? Google gives the 100 current PE at anywhere between 12 and 18! I just want to know how the indexes are valued today vs their long-term average. Thanks
That would be very helpful, thank you. I'm currently a bit equity light (50% VWRL / 50% gilts) in one of the portfolios and pondering adding a tilt to a UK index. Vanguard use the All-Share in their lifeStrategy range - most diversified, but I'm leaning towards the 250 as 1/ its dividend yield is (slightly) better, 2/ lowest PE, 3/ fallen the most from its ATH.
250 is more domestically focussed, and the UK seems a bit f
ked to me. Every chance it's "cheap for a reason".
At least with the 100 you are buying big international players who just so happen to be listed in the UK....
You could just swap your VWRL for LifeStrategy or BlackRock Consensus 100 to give a slight tilt without making too big a bet.

Here you go...had a little time to kill while I wait for my lazy arse family to get out of bed 

White is the 100, blue the 250. Some points:
- Haven't included the All-Share as, for obvious reasons, it tracks the 100 very closely so just clutters the chart.
- The spot values I mentioned before are "adjusted", (i.e. with exceptional/one-off items stripped out of the earnings), whereas the series in the chart are unadjusted. This doesn't really change the relative paths for the purpose of historical comparison, it just means that for any given point the unadjusted value is maybe 1-2 turns higher than the equivalent adjusted value due to the denominator being slightly lower.
- Note the 250 is at present ~27% made up of investment trusts.

Brilliant thank you! Currently at the gym but will have a proper look later. Good point re IT’s - I believe a lot of these are discounted so might be an easy way to get a little exposure to them. Mmmm.

Thanks again

Loads of American PE have been bidding on some of those investment trusts (REITS) recently, it's a public info. Actually one of the healthcare REITS recently accepted an offer to go private. The reality is -imho- these are mostly quite well positioned companies, relatively low debt, good buildings and proper management so they are really cheap.
