TOP 10 · TRAILING P/E · LOG — Peak trailing P/E · plotted on a log axis
Valuation at the top — Each giant's PE in its peak year, on one log ruler.
Each firm's peak trailing P/E, on a log axis so the dot-com and 2021 Tesla outliers don't crush the rest. Two reference lines: 18× — the long-run S&P 500 midpoint, and 140× — Cisco's March 2000 high. Nvidia 2024 at 78× still sits sixty multiples below that high.
