This is all well and good, but your missing the most important ingredient; timeframe is oh so important. Just relying on correct pricing isn't going to get you the super high profit yield, because your money will still be tied into a stock which may move sideways for a long period of time.

This is why waiting for a catalyst till you invest your money, in my opinion, makes a much high probability that your invested money won't lie dormant for too long.

it seems to me that this is mostly a short-term strategy (there will definitely be exceptions) and the discrepancies between your expected market valuation and the trading price will often be due to upcoming events that insiders have knowledge about or that are somewhat predictable by people smarter than the general market. of course a lot of the time you won't know how long your timeline is since you don't know what's causing the discrepancy...
