In recent weeks, global markets have experienced fluctuations driven by uncertainty surrounding the incoming Trump administration's policies and their potential impact on various sectors, alongside significant movements in digital currency and electric vehicle shares. As investors navigate these volatile conditions, identifying stocks that may be trading below their fair value becomes increasingly appealing as a strategy to potentially capitalize on market inefficiencies. In this context, understanding what constitutes an undervalued stock—typically one whose current price does not fully reflect its intrinsic worth—is crucial for making informed investment decisions amid shifting economic landscapes.
