"US stocks" P/E ratio (static) = latest price/diluted earnings per share disclosed in the latest annual report

"U.S. stocks" P/E ratio (TTM)= latest price/diluted EPS disclosed in last 12 months statement
Meaning: refers to the ratio of the market price divided by the earnings per share disclosed in the most recent 12-month statement. The earnings per share in the rolling price-earnings ratio uses the financial data of the past four quarters. Although its starting point will change, and these four quarters may belong to two different natural years, it still makes up for the objective seasonality of listed companies.
The impact of the difference makes up for the timeliness of the static P/E ratio using year-on-year data.
