After developing a fundamental understating of stocks (i.e., what they represent, how they are obtained, etc.), a prudent investor could focus on improving his or her ability to determine the value of stocks. Investing in stocks while they are undervalued can lead to impressive returns, but buying overvalued stocks can lead to painful losses. The process of valuing stocks can be difficult and is sometimes as much of an art as it is a mathematical exercise—especially when attempting to predict future cash flows for young, growing companies. In this Discussion, you will determine the value of a stock and describe how you did so with your colleagues, as well as provide a recommendation of whether or not you would recommend buying the stock.

Post a 150- to 225-word (2- to 3-paragraph) explanation of the value of your selected common stock. In your explanation, do the following:

• Describe the common stock that you located, including a link to the web page where you located the information about the stock.
• Explain what the value of the stock is and describe how you determined its value.
• Provide a rationale for why or why not you would recommend investing in the stock.
• To support your response, be sure to reference at least one properly cited scholarly source.
