A stock\u2019s price isn\u2019t always an accurate representation of its value.<\/p><p>Some stocks are overvalued\u2014others are undervalued. Fundamental analysis can help you uncover a stock\u2019s true value to identify prime opportunities for long-term growth.<\/p><p>Fundamental analysis is one of two ways to value stocks. The other method\u2014typically employed by active traders\u2014is technical analysis. This form of analysis relies on sophisticated charting tools to analyze a stock\u2019s price history and movement.<\/p><p>Technical analysis can be useful, but is better suited to short-term trades rather than long-term investments.<\/p><h3>5 tools to use when valuing stocks<\/h3><p>High-quality tools are the key to well-informed trading decisions. These 5 fundamental analysis tools are ideal for the value investor seeking top-notch data.<\/p><h4>1. Company financials<\/h4><p>Company data goes far beyond its valuation and stock price.
