The proven Zacks Rank system focuses on earnings estimates and estimate revisions to find winning stocks. Nevertheless, we know that our readers all have their own perspectives, so we are always looking at the latest trends in value, growth, and momentum to find strong picks.

Looking at the history of these trends, perhaps none is more beloved than value investing. This strategy simply looks to identify companies that are being undervalued by the broader market. Value investors use tried-and-true metrics and fundamental analysis to find companies that they believe are undervalued at their current share price levels.

Zacks has developed the innovative Style Scores system to highlight stocks with specific traits. For example, value investors will be interested in stocks with great grades in the "Value" category. When paired with a high Zacks Rank, "A" grades in the Value category are among the strongest value stocks on the market today.

One company value investors might notice is RCM Technologies (RCMT). RCMT is currently holding a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy) and a Value grade of A. The stock is trading with P/E ratio of 7.35 right now. For comparison, its industry sports an average P/E of 15.75. Over the past 52 weeks, RCMT's Forward P/E has been as high as 13.58 and as low as 7.03, with a median of 8.21.

Finally, our model also underscores that RCMT has a P/CF ratio of 9.46. This metric focuses on a firm's operating cash flow and is often used to find stocks that are undervalued based on the strength of their cash outlook. This stock's P/CF looks attractive against its industry's average P/CF of 13.35. Within the past 12 months, RCMT's P/CF has been as high as 14.40 and as low as 7.98, with a median of 9.52.

These figures are just a handful of the metrics value investors tend to look at, but they help show that RCM Technologies is likely being undervalued right now. Considering this, as well as the strength of its earnings outlook, RCMT feels like a great value stock at the moment.
