One metric that value investors look at is the amount of cash per share, in other words, dividing all the cash that the company has in the bank divided by all the outstanding shares. Then if you compare that cash per share to the stocks price, and if the cash exceeds the stock price, then you might have found a very favorable investment.
You obviously have to look at other factors and metrics, but finding the stocks below cash could be a good starting point. WallStreetNewsNetwork.com just updated its list of stocks selling below cash, which also includes data on the forward price to earnings ratio and the total debt.
