- Cracks are emerging in the ongoing rally on Wall Street amid uncertainty over the outlook for inflation, the economy, and interest rates.
- As such, I used the InvestingPro stock screener to search for undervalued technology stocks that are trading are bargain prices and possess solid fundamentals and robust ‘Fair Value’ upside.
- Below is a list of five tech stocks which are expected to provide some of the highest returns based on the InvestingPro models.
The ongoing year-to-date rally on Wall Street is showing signs of exhaustion amid fresh uncertainty over the Federal Reserve’s outlook for interest rates and as recent data has painted a worrying picture of the economy.
All three main indexes posted losses for August, with the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average falling 2.4%, while the benchmark S&P 500 and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite declined 1.8% and 2.2% respectively.
For the Nasdaq, it was the biggest monthly loss since December 2022.
DOW, S&P 500, Nasdaq YTD Chart
As we head into a historically weak period for the stock market and investors grapple with fresh uncertainty surrounding the economy and Fed’s rate plans, identifying undervalued stocks becomes paramount as investors find themselves seeking stability and potential opportunities.
Amid the current backdrop, I used the InvestingPro stock screener to search for the best undervalued technology stocks that have the potential to provide attractive investment returns in the months ahead.
InvestingPro’s stock screener is a powerful tool that can assist investors in identifying cheap bargain stocks with strong potential upside. By utilizing this tool, investors can filter through a vast universe of stocks based on specific criteria and parameters, saving you substantial time and effort.
To identify technology stocks that are currently trading at bargain prices, I first scanned for companies with an InvestingPro ‘Fair Value’ Label of either ‘Bargain’, or ‘Undervalued’.
InvestingPro Filters Screen
I then filtered for names with an InvestingPro ‘Fair Value’ upside greater than or equal to 20%. The Fair Value estimate is determined according to several valuation models, including price-to-earnings (P/E) ratios, price-to-sales (P/S) ratios, and price-to-book (P/B) multiples.
And those companies with a market cap of $20 billion and above made my watchlist.
Once the criteria were applied, I was left with a total of just five companies. All five stocks offer compelling valuations, strong fundamentals, and the potential for long-term growth.
These 5 Stocks Are Trading At Bargain Prices According to InvestingPro
Among the information technology space, here are the top five stocks that are expected to provide investors with some of the highest returns, based on InvestingPro ‘Fair Value’ price targets.
