If the stocks are less risky than bonds, then the risk premium on stock may be zero. Assuming that the risk-free interest rate is 2 percent, the growth rate of dividends is 1 percent and the current level of dividends is $70, use the dividend-discount model to compute the level of the S&P 500 that is warranted by the fundamentals. Compare the result to the current S&P 500 level of 4300, and explain one possible reason for the difference.
