For long-term investors: Ascertain value using a lesser known ratio; 6 stocks that fit the bill, with an upside potential of up to 37%

In times of volatility in the market, caution and a long-term perspective should guide you. While sustained selling pressure might have reduced, the possibility of headwinds remains high: From the mixed bag Q1 results to the slowdown in the economy to global irritants. In such times, give some importance to value. And how do you ascertain value? Most investors use the price-to-earning or PE ratio. But at a time the market is adjusting to the Q1 earnings season, relying on this ratio alone could lead to more wrong decisions than right. Is there another way? Yes. Use a lesser known but more reliable ratio.
