There are a few stocks that have met the criteria of being discounted and have higher projected values for 2009:
- (GE) General Electric - the first company that comes onto the radar. This stock has just hit a 5-year low and remains to be a great company. GE has a P/E of 12.4x earnings which is pretty low compared to other stocks. General Electric has investing billions into alternative energy and will continue to do so. That gives the company great expectations for the future. Invest in this stock now, and in one or two years you will be sitting on top of a nice pile of cash.
- (BAC) Bank of America - this is one of the best bank companies in the world. Also, they didn't have the same amount of crippling subprime mortgages that Wachovia (WB) and Washington Mutual (WM) had. Reaching a 7-year low, now would be a good time to invest in this stock. Trading at a P/E of 10.4, this stock is pretty cheap.
- (FRO) Frontline Ltd. - this stock has and continues to do nothing but go straight up. They are a shipping company that ships bulk and oil deliveries. This stock has an 8.2 P/E with earnings per share of $8.50 and a 15.87% dividend. This stock is still cheap, so it's a buy.
Investing in stocks in this stock market can seem daunting, but you don't have to buy anything right now. Stock investing can offer you the returns that you want if you can find good deals and you have the patience to wait until your stock rises.
