VALUE: INS has a Value of $5.74 per share. Value is the foundation of the Vector-Vest system. It is a measure of what a stock is currently worth. Value is based upon earnings, earnings growth rate, dividend payments, dividend growth rate, and financial performance. Current interest and inflation rates also play an important role in the computation of Value. When interest and/or inflation rates decrease, Value goes up. When interest rates and inflation increase, Value goes down. Sooner or later a stock's Price and Value always converge.
RV (Relative Value): INS has an RV of 1.57. On a scale of 0.00 to 2.00, an RV of 1.57 is excellent. RV reflects the long-term price appreciation potential of the stock compared to an alternative investment in AAA Corporate Bonds. Stocks with RV ratings above 1.00 have attractive upside potential. A stock will have an RV greater than 1.00 when its Value is greater than Price, and its Relative Safety (see below) and forecasted earnings growth rate are above average.
GRT (Growth Rate): INS has a GRT of 33 % per year. This is excellent. GRT stands for forecasted Earnings Growth Rate in percent per year. GRT is updated each week for every stock. Watch GRT trends very carefully. If the GRT trend is up, the stock's Price will likely rise. If the GRT trend is down, the stock's Price will increase more slowly, cease to increase, or subsequently fall.
Recommendation (REC): INS has a Buy recommendation. REC reflects the cumula-tive effect of all the VectorVest parameters working together. These parameters are designed to help investors buy safe, undervalued stocks which are rising in price, and to avoid or sell risky, overvalued stocks which are falling in price.
VectorVest is tuned to give an "H" or "B" signal when a stock's price is approxima-tely 10% above a recent low, and an "S" signal when the stock's price is approxi-mately 10% below a recent high. High RV, RS stocks are favored toward receiving "B" REC's, and sheltered from receiving "S" RECs.
EY (Earnings Yield): INS has an EY of 18.74%. This is above the current market average of 3.83%. EY equals 100 x (EARNINGS PER SHARE/PRICE), and is expres-sed as a percentage.
EPS (Earnings Per Share): INS has an EPS of $0.58 per share. EPS stands for lea-ding 12 months Earnings Per Share. VectorVest determines this forecast from a combination of recent earnings performance and traditional fiscal and/or calendar year earnings forecasts.
P/E (Price to Earnings Ratio): INS has a P/E ratio of 5.36. This ratio is computed daily based upon Price and EPS. P/E = Price/EPS.
GPE (Growth to P/E Ratio): INS has a GPE of 6.19. This ratio suggests that INS is undervalued. Growth to P/E ratio is a popular measure of stock valuation which compares Earnings Growth Rate (GRT) to Price Earnings ratio (P/E). A stock is con-sidered to be undervalued when GPE is greater than 1.00, and vice-versa. Vector-Vest believes that RV is a much better indicator of long-term value. The RV of 1.57 for INS is excellent. |
