Are the U.S. tech stocks expensive at the current level? Why did they come down so much lately? In my Macro. classes, students are taught to create this type of equilibrium curve to answer a question similar to these. I am proud and confident to say that only my students at Rutgers know how to create the curve and read it correctly.
