The US Stock Market Is Now One Of The Most Expensive In The World

U.S. stocks have been outpacing earnings growth in recent periods.  This means that price-earnings multiples have been expanding.

However, Morgan Stanley's Greg Peters is concerned that these multiples are getting a little too high for comfort.

"Our regional preference is for [Emerging Markets], and in particular [Asia excluding Japan] over [Latin America], while we would underweight the US, as it is a relatively expensive market, a crowded trade, and has the most earnings risk," writes Peters.

Barclays' global equity strategy team is also concerned about U.S. valuation as measured by the cyclically adjusted price-earnings ratio, a P/E ratio based on long-term average earnings.

Unlike Morgan Stanley, Barclays sees better value in Europe.

"Of the 10 cheapest regional indices based on the Cyclically Adjusted PE (Shiller PE), 8 are from developed Europe," wrote Barclays in a note published last week. "We think the value attraction we witness within European equities, along with the general underweight positioning, should continue to drive European equities higher in 2013."
