Global markets have shown mixed performance recently, with small-cap and value shares outpacing large-cap growth stocks. Despite some significant midweek sell-offs, overall earnings for the S&P 500 are predicted to have risen compared to the same quarter last year. In this context, identifying undervalued stocks can be particularly rewarding. These stocks are trading below their intrinsic value and offer potential for growth as market conditions stabilize or improve.
