Top Undervalued Stocks To Watch For 2019


As I mentioned earlier this week, the market has transformed from a straight shot moneymaking bull market machine into more of a runaway train headed for untested track in near-zero visibility conditions. Take what you know and throw it — along with most of your logic — out the window.

The best way to win now is to laser in on very unique stocks that are either undervalued or overvalued while trying to steer clear of unpredictable geopolitical policy shifts. (Honestly, it’s starting to feel like these shifts are occurring with higher frequency than the Twitter messages triggering them.)

In an effort to do just that, I searched for a stock that shouldn’t be terribly affected by tariffs… or walls… taxes… or the USPS.

As I scoured the markets for an “insulated play,” I landed on pizza. But unlike the rocket my Profit Amplifier subscribers and I rode in February with Domino’s Pizza (NYSE: DPZ) — which gave us a 22.5% return in only seven days — this new play is focused on a recent loser that is still extremely overvalued.
