Core Insights - The article discusses the importance of the price-to-book (P/B) ratio in value investing, highlighting its utility in identifying undervalued stocks with strong growth potential [1][2].

Group 2: Investment Opportunities - Five stocks identified as having low P/B ratios include StoneCo (STNE), CVS Health (CVS), KT Corporation (KT), KB Financial Group (KB), and USANA Health Sciences (USNA) [11][16]. - These stocks have Zacks Rank 1 or 2 and Value Scores of A or B, with projected EPS growth rates ranging from 11.9% to 49.9%, indicating strong potential [11][17][19][20][21].
