Investors can turn to several metrics to gauge a stock's worth. Some investors use standard metrics, such as price/earnings or price/cash flow. Others may look at a stock's price relative to a company’s future growth prospects, or where a stock is trading relative to its 52-week high price At Morningstar, we define undervalued stocks as those that are trading below our calculated fair value estimate, adjusted for what we call uncertainty— both of which are wrapped into the Morningstar Rating for stocks. Stocks rated 4 and 5 stars are undervalued; those rated 3 stars are fairly valued; and those rated 1 or 2 stars are overvalued.
