5 Value Stocks In The Technology Sector

What are Value Stocks?

A value stock is traditionally defined in terms of how investors in the marketplace are valuing that company's future growth prospects. Low P/E multiples are good base indicators that the company is undervalued and can most likely be labelled as a value stock.

1. GSE Systems GVP - P/E: 2.69

3. O2Micro Intl OIIM - P/E: 9.67
4. Flex FLEX - P/E: 7.34
