Jan 08, 2013 (SmarTrend(R) News Watch via COMTEX) -- Below are the three companies in the Apparel Retail industry with the highest forward earnings yields. Using projected earnings for the current fiscal year, the forward earnings yield is useful to compare a stock's return vs. owning a similar stock or other yield assets (e.g. bonds). Generally, the higher the earnings yield, the more undervalued the stock.Express ranks highest with a forward earnings yield of 10.1%. Following is Finish Line with a forward earnings yield of 9.5%. Genesco ranks third highest with a forward earnings yield of 8.9%.



Body Central follows with a forward earnings yield of 8.4%, and JOS A Bank Clothiers rounds out the top five with a forward earnings yield of 8.1%.
