In 2022, value stocks did better than growth stocks, marking the first time of value outperformance since 2016. However, in 2023, value stocks faced difficulties due to ongoing problems in the financial sector, especially in banking. Despite this setback, analysts believe that the strong performance of value stocks in 2022 might signal the start of a trend where they outperform for several years. Tom Hancock, a portfolio manager at GMO, spoke about the outlook of value stocks in his recent interview with CNBC. Here is what he said:
“We like to talk about intrinsic value which is companies that can grow and grow at a high return on capital. That can be reasonably priced and that kind of company has been doing very well. I think that kind of trend can continue as long as there is innovation going forward.”
Over time, when we look back at the performance of growth and value stocks, they've typically been quite competitive. However, the advantage often leans toward value stocks when we consider the longer-term perspective beneficial for investors. In one of our articles, we delved into the historical performance of value and growth stocks. The report highlighted that value investing has demonstrated remarkable success over many years. Since 1926, it has generated an impressive total return of 1,344,600%. Growth stocks, on the other hand, returned 626,000% during the same period. This comparison highlights the significant advantage value stocks have historically held in terms of long-term returns.
Value dividend stocks can be attractive options for investors seeking a balance between potential growth and consistent income. These stocks typically belong to established companies that are undervalued by the market but still maintain strong fundamentals. Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE:VZ), Altria Group, Inc.
