on charts for stock market index yields in the Chart Library:
"Is it possible to post charts of the S&P 500 and FTSE all share yields and also the Dow gold ratio that I can save in my Favourites. Both of which I have searched for in the library without success. Thanks."

And

"Do you have on your website charts of PE ratios of foreign stock markets? i.e. Hang Seng?"

Eoin Treacy's view Thank you for these questions which others may also have an interest in. The Dow / Gold ratio can be found in the Relative Charts section of the Chart Library or by using 'Dow" as your parameter in the Chart Library's dedicated search. This can be added to your Favourites by either clicking on the green '+' sign to the left of the title in the menu or by clicking on the 'Add to Favourites' tab found to the right of the charcoal bar located above the chart.

Unfortunately, we do not receive fundamental data in our feed from Bloomberg so it is not possible to chart data such as dividend yields or P/Es in the Chart Library. However, here are long-term dividend yield charts for the S&P500, FTSE 100 and a 10-year chart of the Hang Seng's P/E.
