Best Undervalued Companies For 2014

If you follow the investing world at all, you've likely heard the Warren Buffett quote: "Be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful." You can apply that to many different situations in the investing world and it will serve you well. I applied it to a situation recently in which I felt that two stocks were unfairly undervalued, and asked whether it was time to scoop up some shares while others are fearful of them? There's definitely a bearish case to be made about each stock, but I'll show you why each one has sustainable, profitable growth ahead.

First up
Ford (NYSE: F  ) has long been a favorite of mine; even after its recent climb in stock price, I feel it's undervalued. In my opinion it's undervalued mainly due to the dismal outlook from Europe, which weighs heavily ��an estimated $2 billion in losses ��on the balance sheet. Here's why I think investing in Ford now could be a good play.
