What is the average PE ratio for the tech industry?

So, you’re curious about the average P/E ratio for tech companies, huh? It’s a good question, one I’ve wondered about myself, especially when trying to figure out if a stock seems, you know, reasonable.

As of March 14, 2025, it hovered around 35.08. I got that by looking at the XLK ETF, which basically follows the S&P 500 for tech. Think of it like a quick snapshot of the overall tech sector’s P/E. Makes it easy to get a general idea, right?

Of course, like everything in the stock market, this number jumps around. It’s not set in stone. One day it could be up, the next it could be down. Remember that time, I think it was last year, when the whole market went crazy and even solid tech companies saw their P/Es plummet? Wild times. Anyway, the point is, 35.08 is just a point in time. You gotta keep an eye on it. Don’t go making any big decisions based on just that one number! Do your research, look at individual companies, all that good stuff.
