Earning yield is the quotient of earnings per share (E), divided by the share price (P), giving E/P.[1] It is the reciprocal of the P/E ratio.

Generally, the earnings yields of equities are higher than thở the yield of risk-free treasury bonds. Some of this may result in dividends, while some may be kept as retained earnings.

The average P/E ratio for U.S. stocks from 1900 to lớn 2005 is 14,[citation needed] which equates to lớn an earnings yield of over 7%.
The Fed model is an example of a system that uses the earnings yield as a method to lớn assess aggregate stock market valuation levels, although it is disputed.[2]
