What is a Value Stock?

A value stock is traditionally defined in terms of how investors in the marketplace are valuing that company's future growth prospects. Low P/E multiples are good base indicators that the company is undervalued and can most likely be labelled as a value stock.

1. Seadrill (NYSE:SDRL) - P/E: 0.76
2. US Silica Holdings (NYSE:SLCA) - P/E: 7.17
3. Northern Oil & Gas (NYSE:NOG) - P/E: 2.81
4. Vermilion Energy (NYSE:VET) - P/E: 2.37
