The stock market has remained largely flat over the past five months, according to MarketWatch.
Despite this stagnation, the S&P 500's forward price-to-earnings ratio is now below its averages for both the past five years and the past 10 years.
This lower valuation suggests that the market may be undervalued and could present buying opportunities for investors.
MarketWatch highlights this shift as a notable development in the market's recent performance.
