Chris,
It takes all 3 series to get the ratio going. My SP500 weekly starts Jan28,
earnings Jan36, and 13 week TBill Jan41 so its the TBill data which prevents
going back to 36. It would be most interesting to see the ratio in 28-29
where it should have peaked. However, TBill rates were under 0.10% (yes 1/10
of 1 percent) for nearly all of 1941 (first year of my data) so the ratio
would have been near zero and I suspect that near-zero ratio would have held
for much of the 30's since the public was paying the Treasury to hold its
money for a good part of the 30's.
Earl
