Sweden Stock Market PE Ratio

The Sweden Stock Market currently trades at a current P/E ratio of 21.62 as of October 24, 2025.

Over the past five years, the median P/E has been 15.81, putting today's valuation at the highest level of that range. Looking at the longer 10-year period, where the median sits at 15.49, the current reading ranks among the highest historically - a level historically associated with Expensive pricing. The 20-year median of 14.71 provides additional context, with the current ratio at the highest level of that extended timeframe.

Returns vs P/E Ratio

Definition: Trailing P/E Ratio

The trailing P/E ratio for Sweden 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
