VALUE TRAP
Value Trap refers to a stock that is seen as cheap because it has been trading at low multiples of earnings, book value, or cash flow for a very long period of time. It tends to attract investors who are in for a bargain. However, the trap lies in the possibility that the stock may never improve.
