3 Key Takeaways

  1. Investors still love the large cap stocks.
  2. Which stocks have high Zacks Ranks and low PEG ratios right now?
  3. International companies, gold miners, and, surprisingly, a tech giant, make the list.

 

Welcome to Episode #408 of the Value Investor Podcast.

Every week, Tracey Ryniec, the editor of Zacks Value Investor portfolio, shares some of her top value investing tips and stock picks.

Small cap value stocks have historically been one of the best performing asset classes over the last 80 years. But in the last 15 years, they have underperformed the large cap stocks, mostly due to the high concentration of small banks which have struggled to recover from the financial crisis.  

Instead of fighting the trend, why shouldn’t value investors embrace it and buy large caps?

Screening for Large Cap Value Stocks

Tracey built a screen looking for the two top Zacks Ranks of #1s, which are Strong Buys, and #2s, which are Buys. Screening for the top Ranks should mean it will include stocks that have rising earnings estimates.

To find value, Tracey used the PEG ratio which looks at the price-to-earnings ratio and divides it by growth. A PEG ratio under 1.0 usually indicates a company has both growth and value.

For large caps, Tracey went larger than the usual $10 billion market cap and screened for those with at least $20 billion.

This screen produced 22 stocks.
