Should You Investigate The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company (NASDAQ:GT) At US$14.47?

What's the opportunity in Goodyear Tire & Rubber?

Good news, investors! Goodyear Tire & Rubber is still a bargain right now. My valuation model shows that the intrinsic value for the stock is $20.29, but it is currently trading at US$14.47 on the share market, meaning that there is still an opportunity to buy now. However, given that Goodyear Tire & Rubber’s share is fairly volatile (i.e. its price movements are magnified relative to the rest of the market) this could mean the price can sink lower, giving us another chance to buy in the future. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for share price volatility.

With profit expected to more than double over the next couple of years, the future seems bright for Goodyear Tire & Rubber.

Are you a shareholder? Since GT is currently undervalued, it may be a great time to increase your holdings in the stock. With a positive outlook on the horizon, it seems like this growth has not yet been fully factored into the share price. However, there are also other factors such as financial health to consider, which could explain the current undervaluation.
