It trades for just 15 times this year’s forecast earnings and13.7 times next year(2023). Analysts forecast a 10% earnings growth rate to$5.24 earnings per share(EPS) next year.</p><p>This is more than enough to cover its annual $1.28 dividend per share, which provides a dividend yield of 1.78% at $71.43 per share as of June 2. Moreover, Oracle produces a large amount of free cash flow (FCF). Last quarter it generated $2.744 billion in FCF, representing a margin of 26.1% on its $10.51 billion in revenue.</p><p>This high FCF margin is also sufficient for Oracle to buy back $774 million of its shares in the past quarter. At that rate, it will repurchase $3.1 billion in shares annually, or about 1.6% of it market capitalization. This buyback yield will help the stock move higher over time.</p><h3><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/QCOM\">Qualcomm</a></b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d5d6dfd3761c75bc47531987fb1308f2\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></h3><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/QCOM\">Qualcomm</a> is a telecom chip designer that has good earnings growth, including 46.8% this year and 4.2% next year. At $143.22 as of June 2, the stock trades on a forward P/E of just 10.7x given its earnings of $12.54 EPS forecast for next year.</p><p>Moreover, this is plenty of earnings for the company to pay a $3 dividend. It also gives the stock a dividend yield of 2.14%. The company also produces enough FCF to cover the dividend as well as a large buyback program. It spends almost half of its FCF on buybacks. For example, last quarter, the company bought back over $1 billion of its shares compared to FCF of over $2.2 billion.</p><p>That gives the stock an annualized buyback yield of 2.56% based on its market capitalization of $156 billion. This should help investors to know that its total yield, including dividends and buybacks, is over 4.6%.</p><h3><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AVT\">Avnet</a></b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fc1d878e0a2b71c7c2d330c7506afa27\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></h3><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AVT\">Avnet</a> is an electronics distributor that is very undervalued. Analysts forecast that earnings will rise modestly from$6.85 to $6.95 by 2023. That puts AVT stock on a cheap forward multiple of just 7 times.</p><p>Moreover, with its $1.04 dividend, AVT stock has a yield of 2.15%. Moreover, Avnet has an ongoing share buyback program. Last quarter it repurchased $43.4 million of its shares.</p><p>That works out to an annual buyback yield of 3.68%. So its total yield including dividends and buybacks is over 5.8%.</p><h3><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HPQ\">HP Inc</a></b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a608450f31aa03b404f0d38788a86ac8\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></h3><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HPQ\">HP Inc</a> is a PC maker that just released better than expected earnings. Analysts now project earnings of $4.29 for next year. Therefore, it trades on a forward 8.4x P/E.</p><p>HPQ stock pays an annual dividend of $1 per share, giving it a 2.57% dividend yield. Moreover, the company spends more than its free cash flow on share buybacks.</p><p>For example, last quarter HP generated $1.384 billion in FCF but spent $1.508 billion during the quarter on buybacks. At that rate, it will buy back $6 billion of its shares annually. That represents almost 15% (14.7%) of its market capitalization. This gives the stock a total yield of almost 18%.</p><h3><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CSCO\">Cisco Systems</a></b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c5ca529522d3d267817ca8632c183571\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></h3><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CSCO\">Cisco Systems</a> software/cloud co. trades for just 11.27x forward earnings. For example, analysts forecast EPS of $3.36 for 2022 and$3.56 for 2023. So, at $45.49 per share as of June 02, the stock trades for just 11.27x.</p><p>Cisco pays an annual dividend of $1.52 per share. At today’s price, this gives the stock a 3.37% yield. Moreover, Cisco spent $377  million on buybacks this past quarter. That was only about 10.6% of its FCF generated during the quarter.</p><p>So it still has plenty of more room to buy back shares. This makes it one of the best undervalued tech stocks on this list.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/KBH\">KB Home</a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c41347908cb01200c82cde009c5e2ead\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/KBH\">KB Home</a> is a major homebuilder in four regions of the US: West Coast, Southwest, Central, and Southeast. This is not a tech stock, but it is simply so cheap I had to include it in this list.</p><p>For example, KBH stock trades for just 3 times the earnings forecasts of analysts. They expect the company will produce EPS of $10.19 in 2022 and $11.31 in 2023. So, at today’s price of $34.22 on June 2, KBH stock is at just 3.05 times 2023 earnings forecasts.</p><p>Moreover, given its dividend rate of 60 cents, which is well covered by the homebuilder’s earnings, the stock has an ample yield of 1.76%. In addition, KH Homes just announced a$300 million share repurchaseprogram on April 11.</p><p>That represents almost 10% of its $3.08 billion market capitalization. Assuming it takes two years to do this, that gives the stock a 5% buyback yield. Combined with the 1.76% dividend yield, its total yield for shareholders is almost 6.75%. That will act as a huge catalyst for the stock, pushing it higher over the next year.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1606302653667","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;
