I've come across some interesting research on how predictive of future returns a country's overall P/B value and CAPE can be. One of these sources is this research paper with snazzy graphs: http://ift.tt/2aPTVCe
What are some reasons why this information might not be worth using in long-term investing?
I'm also wondering, what are some ways someone could use this information (assuming they agree with the conclusions) aside from just buying country-specific or sector etfs? Are there any ways use leverage/options to amplify your returns (without the margin interest eating away alot of the returns) over periods as long these (10+ years)?
