 Are Bull Markets Supported By Rational Growth in Stock Valuations
Given the rationale that all investors are in theory performing the similar present value calculations to value the share of common stock, all else equal, the future market price of the stock should not increase dramatically unless the majority of investors have been consistently underestimating the company’s ability to generate future earnings and pay dividends.
However, it is economically rational for stock prices to rise gradually over the long terms as more investors enter the stock market and the confidence in the market’s ability to generate good returns grows, decreasing the equity risk premium.
The new investors and assets would naturally lead to an expansion of stock prices and P/E multiples, assuming the inflow of new assets was greater than the value of any new shares of stock issued by companies.

 Why you lose money in stock markets
