Wondering how to pick strong, market-beating stocks for your investment portfolio? Look no further than the Zacks Style Scores.

Here at Zacks, our focus is on the proven Zacks Rank system, which emphasizes earnings estimates and estimate revisions to find great stocks. Nevertheless, we are always paying attention to the latest value, growth, and momentum trends to underscore strong picks.

Gentex is undervalued with 50%+ upside, driven by dominant market share in auto-dimming mirrors and other smaller growth levers. GNTX's narrow economic moat is supported by vertical integration, deep OEM relationships, and high ROTC/ROIC, despite customer concentration and cyclical risks. Relative and DCF valuations converge on a $35.2 fair value, with downside risk limited under more pessimistic scenarios and with technical supports.

GNTX beat Q2 earnings estimates as favorable product mix, tight cost control and tariff reimbursements offset softer auto demand and lower revenues.

From advanced seating systems to smart mirrors and lidar technology, LEA, GNTX and HSAI are three automotive equipment stocks positioned to capitalize on the future of mobility.
