Is It The Right Time To Buy BT Group plc (LSE:BTA)?

Today we're going to take a look at the well-established BT Group plc (LSE:BT.A). The company's stock Check out our latest analysis for BT Group

Is BT.A still cheap?

Great news for investors – BT.A is still trading at a fairly cheap price. According to my valuation, the intrinsic value for the stock is £3.94 which is above what the market is valuing the company at the moment. This indicates a potential opportunity to buy low. BT.A’s share price also seems relatively stable compared to the rest of the market, as indicated by its low beta. If you believe the share price should eventually reach its true value, a low beta could suggest it is unlikely to rapidly do so anytime soon, and once it’s there, it may be hard to fall back down into an attractive buying range.

What kind of growth will BT.A generate?
