It doesn't matter your age or experience: taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals for all investors.
Many investors also have a go-to methodology that helps guide their buy and sell decisions. One way to find winning stocks based on your preferred way of investing is to use the Zacks Style Scores, which are indicators that rate stocks based on three widely-followed investing types: value, growth, and momentum.
Different than growth or momentum investors, value-focused investors are all about finding good stocks at good prices, and discovering which companies are trading under what their true value is before the broader market catches on. The Value Style Score utilizes ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, and Price/Cash Flow to help pick out the most attractive and discounted stocks.
San Francisco, CA-based Yelp, founded in 2004, is a website engaged in providing information through online community offering social networking. It covers restaurants, shopping, nightlife, financial services, health and a variety of services.
YELP boasts a Value Style Score of A and VGM Score of A, and holds a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) rating. Shares of Yelp are trading at a forward earnings multiple of 21.2X, as well as a PEG Ratio of 0.7, a Price/Cash Flow ratio of 13.4X, and a Price/Sales ratio of 1.8X.
A company's earnings performance is important for value investors as well. For fiscal 2024, five analysts revised their earnings estimate higher in the last 60 days for YELP, while the Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased $0.19 to $1.80 per share. YELP also holds an average earnings surprise of 143.7%.
With strong valuation and earnings metrics, a good Zacks Rank, and top-tier Value and VGM Style Scores, investors should strongly think about adding YELP to their portfolios.
