U.S. Stocks Are Overvalued: Playing Defense And Offense With Cambria's Meb Faber

Over the last 40 years, U.S. equities have had roughly the same P/E ratio as the rest of the world. Over the last 10, the U.S. has produced massive outperformance relative to its global peers, with valuations becoming increasingly stretched. You actually have to go back to the 1920s to find a period where U.S. stock valuations were this stretched relative to their global peers. Cambria Founder and CEO Meb Faber joins Let's Talk ETFs to explain why his firm's ETF line-up is particularly well suited to play the rotation to value and global equities that he believes is certainly coming.
