Of these, value investing is easily one of the most popular ways to find great stocks in any market environment. Value investors use tried-and-true metrics and fundamental analysis to find companies that they believe are undervalued at their current share price levels.
Zacks has developed the innovative Style Scores system to highlight stocks with specific traits. For example, value investors will be interested in stocks with great grades in the "Value" category. When paired with a high Zacks Rank, "A" grades in the Value category are among the strongest value stocks on the market today.

Value investors also love the P/S ratio, which is calculated by simply dividing a stock's price with the company's sales. This is a prefered metric because revenue can't really be manipulated, so sales are often a truer performance indicator. PII has a P/S ratio of 1.21. This compares to its industry's average P/S of 1.4.
Finally, investors will want to recognize that PII has a P/CF ratio of 11.37.

This company's current P/CF looks solid when compared to its industry's average P/CF of 21.99. Over the past 52 weeks, PII's P/CF has been as high as 12.36 and as low as 5.88, with a median of 9.80.
