Let’s look at the banks today.  J.P. Morgan closed at 35.39.  J.P. Morgan was only $10 more during the housing boom when it had real earnings potential.  I use JPM as an example because I actually think it is one of the better (if not the best) bank out there.  I am not saying I like the banks (not at all am I saying that) I am just picking the best of a bad bunch.  Okay, so now ask yourself is JPM really worth only $10 less than when it actually had earnings potential?  What happens if ...
