With the index now trading at 2.78x P/B, close to this historically significant threshold, the findings offer a timely framework for understanding how valuation compression has translated into forward returns.
The analysis shows that periods of meaningful valuation compression have historically created attractive entry points, with positive 3-year and 5-year returns across all ten breaches.
