Before we go further, let’s define value stocks. These are companies that look undervalued compared to their true worth, trading at lower price-to-earnings or price-to-book ratios. When the market eventually recognizes their real value, they can deliver strong gains.
In the current macro scenario, value stocks are appealing as they offer both stability and upside potential.
