It is important to consider the P/E Ratio of a market before investing because it gives an indication of how much investors are willing to pay per dollar of earnings.

A market with a high P/E ratio may indicate that investors are optimistic about future earnings, but may also be overvalued. Similarly, a low P/E ratio may indicate undervaluation but may also indicate low growth prospects.

Therefore, comparing the current P/E ratio to historical values can help investors make informed decisions and identify potential risks and opportunities.

Methodology
The Average P/E (μ) and the Standard Deviation (σ) are calculated excluding 20% outliers (i.e. over a range of values excluding 10% of observations from the top and 10% from the bottom of the dataset).
A P/E between (μ - σ) and (μ + σ) is considered "Fair", over a specific timeframe.
A P/E greater than (μ + σ) is defined "Overvalued", greater than (μ + 2σ) is defined "Expensive".
A P/E less than (μ - σ) is defined "Undervalued", less than (μ - 2σ) is defined "Cheap".
The Trend is considered positive if the ETF price is higher than the 200-day moving average (SMA).
