It can be very difficult to find companies that are both flying under the radar, and still might have potential for gains. Many times, stocks are off investors’ radar screens for a reason, though there are some hidden gems that could be worth uncovering by those with a high risk tolerance.
One way to find these underappreciated stocks is by looking at companies that haven’t seen their share prices move higher lately, but have observed analysts raising earnings estimates for their stock.
One such company that looks well positioned for a solid gain, but has been overlooked by investors lately, is Anadarko Petroleum Corporation APC. This Oil and Gas - Exploration and Production - United States stock has actually seen estimates rise over the past month for the current fiscal year by about 29.5%. But that is not yet reflected in its price, as the stock gained only 0.13% over the same time frame.
