Moats on Sale
The best of both worlds. Companies making this list have a wide or narrow economic moat—a durable competitive advantage that allows a company to earn excess returns on capital for a long period of time and keep competitors at bay. Morningstar analysts assign every company they cover an economic moat rating of wide, narrow, or none. Their stocks are also trading at a large discount (4- and 5-star) to Morningstar’s Fair Value estimate, indicating the stock may be undervalued.
