For Immediate ReleaseChicago, IL – November 13, 2025 – Stocks in this week’s article are Commercial Metals Co. CMC, Allied Gold Corp. AAUC, LATAM Airlines LTM and CommScope Holding Co., Inc. COMM.4 Value Plays with High Earnings Yield and Upside PotentialValue investing is a time-tested strategy that focuses on finding assets trading for less than their intrinsic value, allowing investors to buy such undervalued assets at a discount. This approach hinges on the idea that market prices often don't fully reflect a company's fundamentals, providing opportunities to benefit from market corrections in the long run.A key metric for value investors is earnings yield, which offers insight into a stock's profitability relative to its market price. Earnings yield is calculated by dividing a company's earnings per share (EPS) by its current stock price (Earnings Yield = EPS / Current Stock Price). This figure represents the profit generated for each dollar invested, effectively serving as the inverse of the price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio. A higher earnings yield typically indicates that a stock may be undervalued and could provide growth potential, while a lower earnings yield could suggest overvaluation.Commercial Metals Co., Allied Gold Corp., LATAM Airlines and CommScope Holding Co., Inc. are a few solid high earnings yield picks for value investors.Beyond identifying individual stocks, earnings yield also aids in comparing the stock market to fixed-income investments, like 10-year Treasury bonds. If the earnings yield of a market index surpasses the bond yield, it can indicate favorable conditions for investing in stocks over bonds, which is valuable for portfolio diversification.Here we discuss four of the 36 stocks that qualified the screening:Commercial Metals manufactures, recycles and markets steel and metal products, related materials and services. The company is focused on strengthening its core operations while expanding into new markets, customer segments and applications. Ongoing network optimization initiatives are expected to enhance margins and lower costs. Strong demand across its major product lines in North America should continue to support top-line growth. Additionally, CMC's solid liquidity, healthy balance sheet and disciplined capital allocation — including debt reduction — position the company well for sustained growth and improved profitability.The Zacks Consensus Estimate for CMC's fiscal 2026 sales and earnings implies year-over-year growth of 7% and 70%, respectively.

At its Sadiola mine, new equipment has been deployed to improve fleet availability, while in Mali, Allied Gold has strengthened mine management with experienced local hires. It's also advancing stripping at Bonikro and Agbaou to access higher-grade ore. These efforts to lift production, along with operational improvement, are expected to benefit the company.The Zacks Consensus Estimate for AAUC's 2025 sales and earnings implies year-over-year growth of 80% and 857%, respectively. EPS estimates for the next year have moved up by 50 cents over the past seven days.
