Ternium (TX): The Perfect Mix of Value and Rising Earnings Estimates?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Value investing is always a very popular strategy, and for good reason. After all, who doesn’t want to find stocks that have low PEs, solid outlooks, and decent dividends?
Fortunately for investors looking for this combination, we have identified a strong candidate which may be an impressive value; Ternium S.A. (TX - Free Report) .
Ternium in Focus
TX may be an interesting play thanks to its forward PE of 6, its P/S ratio of 0.7, and its decent dividend yield of 3%. These factors suggest that Ternium is a pretty good value pick, as investors have to pay a relatively low level for each dollar of earnings, and that TX has decent revenue metrics to back up its earnings.
But before you think that Ternium is just a pure value play, it is important to note that it has been seeing solid activity on the earnings estimate front as well. For current year earnings, the consensus has gone up by 8.3% in the past 30 days, thanks to one upward revision in the past one month compared to none lower.
So really, Ternium is looking great from a number of angles thanks to its PE below 20, a P/S ratio below one, and a strong Zacks Rank, meaning that this company could be a great choice for value investors at this time.
Today's Stocks from Zacks' Hottest Strategies
It's hard to believe, even for us at Zacks. But while the market gained +21.9% in 2017, our top stock-picking screens have returned +115.0%, +109.3%, +104.9%, +98.6%, and +67.1%.
And this outperformance has not just been a recent phenomenon. Over the years it has been remarkably consistent. From 2000 - 2017, the composite yearly average gain for these strategies has beaten the market more than 19X over. Maybe even more remarkable is the fact that we're willing to share their latest stocks with you without cost or obligation.
