TheStreet.com Ratings: Top 10 All-Around Value Stocks

Stock quotes in this article: VOLV , CSX , MET , HON , NUE , SRE , TMX  


Rated a buy since March 2005, Nucor(NUE Quote) manufactures steel products, with facilities in 13 states. It produces carbon and alloy-steel building materials and also is a recycler. The company has a very low debt-to-equity ratio (a sign of successful management of debt levels), improved return on equity and net operating cash flow growth.

These strengths outweigh the company's low profit margins.


Sempra Energy(SRE Quote) provides natural gas service throughout southern California and portions of central California. It has been rated a buy since March 2005. The company's strengths include its solid stock price performance, dramatic increases in net operating cash flow and a debt-to-equity ratio lower than that of the industry average.

With strengths such as these, the company's subpar net income growth is no cause for concern.


Telmex-Telefonos de Mexico(TMX Quote) owns and operates telecommunications systems in Mexico and has been rated a buy since March 2005. Its strengths include solid stock price performance, a relatively low debt-to-equity ratio and an impressive pattern of EPS growth over the 12 months prior to March 2.

These factors outweigh the fact that the company has had subpar growth in net income.


Crude oil and natural gas explorer and producer Marathon Oil(MRO Quote) has been rated a buy since March 2005. It has shown strong stock price appreciation and improvement on its low profit margin.

These strengths outweigh the company's subpar net income growth.
