Wall Street has roared back to record highs even as geopolitical uncertainty involving Iran continues to weigh on investor sentiment. Despite these risks, the S&P 500 currently appears relatively inexpensive, trading at 20.8 times its projected earnings for the next 12 months. This valuation is down from the start of 2026, when the benchmark reached a price-to-earnings ratio of over 22, suggesting that U.S. stocks may represent a more attractive entry point for investors now than earlier in the year.
