Bus/Financial - Finance (general)
German term or phrase: Bewertung stützt
From a powerpoint presentation on the current economic situation in Europe. It is all short bullet points. This is all there is on European equities:

Aktien:

Europa
- Gewinnschätzungen gehen weiter zurück
- Viele negative Faktoren – ***Bewertung stützt**

valuation levels provide support
Explanation:
"Stützt" might be correct, actually, as valuation levels (P/E multiples) have already come down quite significantly to levels around 10-11x 2008/2009 profits. Accordingly, even if earnings forecasts are set for further declines, valuations could still be considered low.

valuation collapsed


Explanation:
It just occurred to me that the original text might contain a typo, and should read 'Bewertung stuerzt'.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Text says stützt but 'stürtzt' would make so much more sense. I will check with client

Asker: In the end the client confirmed that it was stützt not stürzt after all but thank you for your help


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Ingeborg Gowans (X): this could be the word, given the context, otherwise it would be a paradox.
