These are stocks in companies that aren’t necessarily growing fast, but instead are dependable and stable. The stock price might be less than what the company is actually worth.
Investors choose value stocks because they expect the market to realise the true value of the stock over time, and the price will rise.
Value stocks tend to have a lower price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio, pay dividends, and are seen as lower risk with steadier returns. Please keep in mind that no stocks are risk free and you may lose what you put in.
Older, established companies like banks, manufacturers, or consumer goods firms are typically where you will find value stocks.
