Here at Zacks, our focus is on the proven Zacks Rank system, which emphasizes earnings estimates and estimate revisions to find great stocks. Nevertheless, we are always paying attention to the latest value, growth, and momentum trends to underscore strong picks.

Considering these trends, value investing is clearly one of the most preferred ways to find strong stocks in any type of 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.

STMicroelectronics (STM) is a stock many investors are watching right now. STM is currently holding a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) and a Value grade of A. The stock has a Forward P/E ratio of 24.23. This compares to its industry's average Forward P/E of 36.59. Over the last 12 months, STM's Forward P/E has been as high as 29.34 and as low as 12.82, with a median of 20.18.

We also note that STM holds a PEG ratio of 1.16. This popular metric is similar to the widely-known P/E ratio, with the difference being that the PEG ratio also takes into account the company's expected earnings growth rate. STM's PEG compares to its industry's average PEG of 1.47. STM's PEG has been as high as 4.37 and as low as 0.55, with a median of 2.82, all within the past year.

These are just a handful of the figures considered in STMicroelectronics's great Value grade. Still, they help show that the stock is likely being undervalued at the moment. Add this to the strength of its earnings outlook, and we can clearly see that STM is an impressive value stock right now.
