Top 5 Value Stocks To Buy Right Now

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- The broader market closed slightly lower after touching a new high earlier in the session.

On CNBC's "Fast Money" TV show, Steve Grasso said investors should wait a few days to see how the market reacts to the Federal Reserve's no-taper decision. He added that he's long gold miners, utilities and emerging markets.

Guy Adami said it's been a couple of big days for gold and investors can own it along with equities in the short term. However, he warned that the S&P 500 is getting a bit extended.

Tim Seymour is not a believer in gold, but is a seller of bonds and buying pullbacks in the emerging markets. Mike Khouw said equities seemed to be fully valued at 17 times earnings. Vornado Realty Trust (VNO), a large shareholder of J.C. Penney (JCP), announced it is selling its entire 13.4 million share stake. Finerman said she is not a buyer of the stock, although there are some big buyers in the name. Adami added J.C. Penney could easily bounce to $15.50 or so before possibly heading lower. Rebecca Patterson, CIO of Bessemer Trust, was a guest on the show and said the Fed blew a great opportunity to announce tapering, since the market was ready and braced for the move. She added the housing and auto data held up well, despite the higher interest rate environment. She thinks that, in general, equities will now go higher. AK Steel Holding Corp. (AKS) got hit in the after-hours for cutting its guidance. Adami said he prefers Nucor (NUE) and U.S. Steel Corp. (X), in that order. Rite Aid (RAD) was the first stock on the show's "Pops & Drops" segment. Finerman said if the company could turn it around, there's a lot more upside left. J.C. Penney fell 2% and Grasso said the stock could go higher on a technical basis, but he does not like the fundamentals. Lennar (LEN) fell 3%. Khouw said he would avoid the name, along with all homebuilders. ConAgra Foods (CAG) dropped 4% and Seymour said buyers should wait before stepping in on the long side.

Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Jacob Roche]

  With the economy starting to improve, you might think Dollar Tree's (NASDAQ: DLTR  ) fortunes will reverse. The deep discounter provided unemployed and lower-income consumers a safe place in the storm, but with the economic weather clearing up, it would be reasonable to expect consumers to venture out again to higher-end retailers. However, that assumption would be wrong.

  European large-cap pharmaceuticals like Novartis (NVS) �and Bristol Meyers Squibb (BMY) �count amongst some of our favorite stocks right now, as do U.S. multinationals that are growing revenue and margins in Asia ��Tupperware (TUP) �is a shining example. Stay away from utilities and energy stocks, as they are likely to be the laggards over the next year.

  For investors, oil stocks are certainly shining this earnings season. OXY and BP, as well previous reports by Schlumberger (SLB) and Halliburton (HAL), are proving that fact.

• [By Arjun Sreekumar]

  For instance, though oilfield services firms Schlumberger (NYSE: SLB  ) and Halliburton (NYSE: HAL  ) have shown a keen interest in developing China's shale resources, the absence of clearly defined and enforceable patent and property protection laws has given them reason to pause. �

• [By Matt DiLallo]

  Along with announcing earnings, both Halliburton (NYSE: HAL  ) and Schlumberger (NYSE: SLB  ) announced multi-billion-dollar stock buybacks. With so much money on the line, investors have to ask if this is the right move for these two oil-field service giants. Are these stocks cheap enough to warrant the buybacks or should these companies consider other options for those funds?

• [By Arjun Sreekumar]

  Not surprisingly, the industry's annual capital spending has more than tripled over the past decade, coming in at $550 billion in 2011, according to oil-field services firm Schlumberger (NYSE: SLB  ) . Yet despite shelling out all that money, the industry as a whole has been unable to secure enough new reserves to offset production.

  Finally, Caterpillar (NYSE: CAT  ) shares have fallen 1.9% today, putting it near the bottom of the index as well. This company's earnings also disappointed investors, and the international slowdown in Europe, China, and other leading economies has crippled Caterpillar's outlook. While there are signs of hope for the firm in the U.S. housing rebound, until China's economy picks up steam from its current lackluster growth -- or until some other economic mover and shaker fills the void -- Caterpillar will continue to feel the pressure.

  Big Earnings Movers: Broadcom Corp. (NASDAQ: BRCM) is down 2.9% at $26.36 after weak guidance. Cree Inc. (NASDAQ: CREE) is down 16.9% at $61.78 on even darker guidance. Caterpillar Inc. (NYSE: CAT) is down 6% at $83.82 on poor earnings and a softer outlook. Boeing Co. (NYSE: BA) is up 5.4% at $129.04 after posting a new 52-week high of $129.99 on good earnings and raised guidance.

  Finally, the U.S. dollar finished weaker against the euro and the British pound but strengthened against the Japanese yen. During this earnings season, we've seen many companies struggle due to the impact of the strong dollar on the value of their foreign revenue and earnings. For instance, Caterpillar (NYSE: CAT  ) cited what it called a "substantial currency headwind" in its second quarter that weighed on its disappointing results. The company doesn't expect a recurrence of the $134 million in currency-translation and hedging losses it suffered during the quarter, but investors should keep an eye on currency movements and weigh their potential impact on earnings.
