Definition: Trailing P/E Ratio

The trailing P/E ratio for Israel Stock Market shows how much investors are paying for one unit of the index's past earnings.
It is calculated as : P/E = Index level / Aggregated EPS
Aggregated EPS means the index's total earnings per share after weighting each stock in the index (usually by its market capitalization): Aggregated EPS = sum(weight_i * EPS_i). For trailing P/E, the EPS_i values are the actual earnings from the past 12 months.
