 Lope Markets - Overvaluation and the 1987 Stock Market Crash   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
If we say that the market considered the 19 PE ratio on the S&P the month of the crash as overvalued, and that overvalued conditions caused the crash, than instances of a PE over 19 in the past should have also caused a crash.
If the market was overvalued on October 19, 1987 and a crash was the result, why did the market not crash on October 16, when it was also considered overvalued, or the 15th, the 14th, or any day in August when it traded with an even higher PE ratio?
Overvaluation fails to explain the question of timing.

 Overvaluation Hurts--Learning From Others’ Mistakes

Turning to the facts of the instant case, the district court held that it was "without jurisdiction to entertain (petitioner's) de facto discrimination claims of overvaluation" (Pet.
Accordingly, the Ninth Circuit held that the district court had erred in dismissing a railroad's overvaluation claim for a lack of jurisdiction under Section 306.
Indeed, the terms "purposeful overvaluation" and "discriminatory intent" can be found nowhere in the language or legislative history of Section 306, but are a gloss on the statute that the Tenth Circuit made up out of whole cloth.

 Volume 5 - Opinions of Counsel SBEA No. 120

From our own calculations, the probability for fixed exchange rates to become overvalued is substantially higher than for floating regimes, and the probability for exchange rates under fixed regimes to become seriously overvalued (in excess of 25%) is almost twice as high as for flexible arrangements.
Overvaluation damages competitiveness because it artificially alters the price ratio between tradables and non-tradables, and the region’s producers of tradable goods find they are less able to compete with either imported goods or with other countries' exports.
Continued build-up of further debt, at the same time, allows an overvalued fixed exchange rate to be maintained, since it permits the government to continue to borrow foreign currency to sustain the current account deficit and meet the excess demand.

 BETTER TO GIVE THAN TO RECEIVE: EVALUATING RECENT IP DONATION TAX POLICY CHANGES
The IRS has listed four areas of abuse for which it has particular concern: (1) excessive valuation of donated property; (2) inadequate substantiation of donations; (3) claiming excessive deductions when consideration is received; and (4) claiming deductions for the transfer of a partial interest.
Therefore, while Section 170 resolves the overvaluation problem, its chilling effect on donations in general is problematic.
While it effectively deals with the overvaluation problems common in the previous system, it fails to fully consider the importance of strong donor incentives.

 No. 02CA0837. Boulder Country Club v. Boulder County Board of Commissioners. - April 24, 2003 - Colorado Court of ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
The BAA concluded that taxpayer’s petition fell within a statutory provision that prohibits an abatement or refund of taxes based on overvaluation if the taxpayer has already protested the valuation for the same tax year and received a written notice of determination.
The division held that the 1990 abatement petition was statutorily barred because the taxpayer had previously filed a protest and adjustment appeal based on an overvaluation.
To conclude that a taxpayer’s request to change the valuation of his or her property under the abatement procedure is always based on an overvaluation would encompass all abatement petitions and render the remaining bases for abatement petitions in § 39-1-114(1)(a)(I)(A) meaningless.

Thus, Congress was centrally concerned with railroads' vulnerability to burdensome overvaluation of their property, an evil that Congress specifically identified as one form of prohibited discrimination (H.R. Rep. 94-725, supra, at 113).
The task of accommodating state interests is, within the terms set by the Constitution, one for Congress, not for the courts, and Congress enacted into law a deliberately unusual although constitutionally valid balance of federal and state interests, a balance that differs from that prevalent in the field of state taxation generally.
Thus, if a state overvalues railroad property but also overvalues non-railroad property to a similar extent, there is no unlawful discrimination.

 Overvaluation and Undervaluation
The person might mean the exchange rate is overvalued with respect to purchasing power parity (PPP), or it he may mean the exchange rate is overvalued relative to the rate presumed needed to balance the current account.
Thus, overvaluation or undervaluation of an exchange rate, for either reason (PPP or CA balance) should be thought of simply as something that happens.
Finally, if the US dollar is overvalued with respect to the Mexican peso, it follows that the peso is undervalued with respect to the dollar.

While the economic consequences of the overvalued dollar were more severe in Argentina than elsewhere, there were also serious ramifications for the U.S. economy from the dollar's persistent overvaluation.
The pattern of rapid capital inflows that lead to currency overvaluations, rising trade deficits, and stock and debt market bubbles seems to be symptomatic of the growing number of financial crises in developing countries (Weller 2001).
If a new system of exchange rates can be designed such that a recurrent overvaluation of the dollar, or respectively, undervaluation of the euro, can be avoided, the ECB would have an incentive to participate since it would mean a reduction in long-run inflationary risks.

The correlation of the rate of inflation with the rate of expansion of nominal domestic demand was lost during 1975-80, when the country was running large current account deficits, but reappeared when external financing for trade deficits stopped.

The proposal will likely lead to the gross overvaluation of employee stock options and corresponding investor confusion, having a chilling effect on broad-based employee stock option plans.
The absence of a reliable valuation model, one that takes into account the unique qualities of employee stock option plans, under the FASB proposal will result in the overvaluation of stock options, compromising the accuracy of financial statements and distorting information available to investors and shareholders.
Legislation introduced in Congress, H.R. 3574, the Stock Option Accounting Reform Act, would require the Securities and Exchange Commission to study the impact of the FASB proposal before it goes into effect.
