Stock-market valuation models have been flashing warning signals since the start of the year. So far, at least, they've been wrong. But that doesn't mean it's time to put all the black boxes in a black box and bury them . . . The stock market is clearly priced for perfection. If perpetual prosperity continues uninterrupted, then perhaps the market's exuberant expectations will be realized. I, however, see more potential for disappointment, given the extreme optimism about long-term earnings growth embedded in current market prices.
