Imagine McDonald's is really worth $200. In our upcoming lessons, you'll learn how to figure out the true value for any company.
So let’s say McDonald's is worth $200. However, right now, in the market, it's trading at just $150. What does that tell us? It tells us that at this current price, McDonald's stock is undervalued; it's cheap. Logically, when something is cheap, what do you do? You buy it! Right? When you buy it at $150, over time, it's going to rise back to its true value. It might be undervalued because of short-term pessimism or some negative news floating around, but eventually, it'll find its way back to $200. So, it's a buy.
