Value:
Value is a measure of a stock's current worth. Value is computed from forecasted earnings per share, forecasted earnings growth, profitability, interest, and inflation rates. Value increases when earnings, earnings growth rate and profitability increase, and when interest and inflation rates decrease. Value minded investors advocates the purchase of undervalued stocks. At some point in time, a stock's Price and Value always will converge. GS has a current Value of (SIT TIGHT!!!) $322.99 per share. Therefore, it is undervalued compared to its Price of $157.40 per share. Fundamentally it is an outright BUY but technically it is Buy at Support & Sell at Resistance >>> please refer to GS Chart.

RV (Relative Value):

RV is an indicator of long-term price appreciation potential. GS has an RV of 1.64, which is excellent on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00. This indicator is far superior to a simple comparison of Price and Value because it is computed from an analysis of projected price appreciation three years out, AAA Corporate Bond Rates, and risk. RV solves the riddle of whether it is preferable to buy High growth, High P/E stocks, or Low growth, Low P/E stocks. ZLBT favors the purchase of stocks with RV ratings above 1.00.

RS (Relative Safety):
RS is an indicator of risk. GS has an RS rating of 1.12, which is good on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00. RS is computed from an analysis of the consistency and predictability of a company's financial performance, debt to equity ratio, sales volume, business longevity, price volatility and other factors. A stock with an RS rating greater than 1.00 is safer and more predictable than the average stock in the database. ZLBT favors the purchase of stocks of companies with consistent, predictable financial performance.

Recommendation (REC):
GS has a Hold recommendation. REC reflects the cumulative effect of all the FA & TA softwares' parameters working together. These parameters are designed to help investors buy safe, undervalued stocks rising in price. They also help investors avoid or sell risky, overvalued stocks falling in price. ZLBT recommends that investors buy rated stocks prudently during rising markets.
