Since the start of the year, the S&P 500 has hit new record highs, gaining 8.3% in the process.
Despite recent data showing slightly worse-than-expected inflation and unemployment rates, there hasn’t been a correction yet, indicating that buyers are in control.
Given this scenario, one interesting strategy is to look for undervalued companies with bullish potential as market optimism persists.
In this regard, three stocks stand out, and in this piece, we will discuss them individually.
1. Chevron
Chevron (NYSE:CVX) experienced sharp declines last October following news that it had acquired Hess (NYSE:HES). However, it has been gradually recovering since the beginning of the year, gaining over 3%.
With the stock still about $36 below its historical highs, there’s room for further gains. The fair value index suggests a potential move of more than 23%, indicating bullish prospects.

It’s important to highlight that Waren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRKb), has boosted its investment in the company.
As per the latest f13 report, which mandates large investment funds to disclose current holdings, Berkshire Hathaway has purchased 16 million shares, raising its stake in the portfolio to 5.3%. This move positions it as the fifth largest holding.
The company maintains strong growth fundamentals and the potential to enhance free cash flow, allowing for successive sharing of growing profits with shareholders.
2. STMicroelectronics
STMicroelectronics (NYSE:STM), a French-Italian company, makes electronic circuits. In recent years, these circuits have become crucial in the global semiconductor landscape.
Despite entering a consolidation phase, the company’s stock price remains in an overall uptrend.

The demand side needs to surpass the recent peak price of $51 per share. Breaking through this level will pave the way for challenging the all-time high prices.
Fundamentally, it’s crucial to note the strong cash flow. It comfortably covers the debt, with cash fully covering the current debt.

3. Haemonetics (NYSE:HAE) Corporation
Haemonetics Corporation, a prominent player in the medical industry, specializes in providing blood and plasma services.
Following a challenging period during the pandemic, the company experienced a sales recovery in 2023, with forecasts indicating continued growth in the current year, ranging from 4% to 7%.
A significant recent development announced earlier this month was the acquisition of Chicago-based Attune Medical for $160 million. This acquisition is expected to drive earnings growth in the years to come.
Recently, the company’s stock price has seen a rebound, supported by strong defense near $72 per share. Currently, it is trading in the range of $72 to $80 per share.

The breakout of the upper limit of the aforementioned range remains crucial and could potentially pave the path toward $90 area.
