⚖️ Valuation vs own history

percentile = share of past sessions with a LOWER value

Ratio	Current	Avg	Range	Percentile
P/E ratio	15.57	18.06	15.05–27.08	4th
P/B ratio	2.34	3.23	2.27–4.25	1th
Dividend yield	0.98%	0.83%	0.46–1.22	91th

A high P/E percentile means the index is expensive versus its own past; for dividend yield it is the opposite — a high percentile means a fatter yield than usual.
