Fully Valued Stocks on NYSE

Today we are looking at companies that are considered fully valued based on the Analyst data in the StockCalc database.

In this table we can see the close price and target price for these companies along with the number of analysts covering the stock. We also have included the fiscal year for the target price as sometimes these analyst targets are not for the current or even the next fiscal year.

There can be a number of reasons why a company would be on this list. What is particularly interesting are companies with a large analyst following that make this list. We need to dig deeper into these companies to understand why the difference in price versus target.

Stocks Trading at Less than Cash Value

American Lorain (ALN:ASE) and ImmunoCellular (IMUC:ASE) Trading at Less than Cash Value

I have used the analysis tools on the website stockcalc.com to generate some of the content of this blog post. These tools and reports are available for free at www.stockcalc.com/TopPicks.aspx.

Trading at Less than Cash Value

Today we are looking at companies trading at less than cash value meaning companies whose current share price is less than the cash per share on the balance sheet. We also show the value of cash net debt per share to show how much cash per share would be left if the debt was paid off.

What this Means…

Companies can have more cash per share than the actual share price for a number of reasons including they just raised capital, are in industries that experience high burn rates and will eat through the cash quickly or if there is a lot of uncertainty about the future of the company. Companies earning a positive net income will have a P/E greater than 0 and are worth exploring in more detail.

Today we are looking at companies whose share price has been downgraded by at least one analyst in the last few days.

Why Do Companies Get Downgraded?

Companies can get downgraded for a number of reasons but primarily due to reduced future earnings potential due to loss of contracts, faultering product lines, increasing costs relative to revenue or financial risk.

In the list below you can see the number of analysts we have in the StockCalc database along with the number of buy-hold-sell on the company.
