Etymology
The word 'undervalued' originates from the combination of the prefix 'under-' meaning below or beneath, and the verb 'value' meaning to estimate the monetary worth of something. The term is commonly used in the context of finance and investments to describe assets or securities that are perceived to be priced lower than their intrinsic value. The concept of undervaluation can lead to opportunities for investors to purchase assets at a discounted price, with the expectation of future appreciation in value.
