Potentially Oversold Level Reached (NYSE: ALU)

Shares of ALU fell by 1.94% or $-0.045/share to $2.28. Alcatel-Lucent is trading at a price to book ratio of 1.03. This indicates that the shares are relatively cheap compared to book value which means the market is pricing in going concern value. The PEG is 1.06 suggesting that the shares are attractively priced relative to the firm's growth rate. The price to sales ratio came in at 0.26. Hence, the firm is extremely cheap relative to its top line sales figures. On average, 21379700 shares of ALU exchange hands on a given day and today's volume is recorded at 12847370.
