JPMorgan Strategic Income Opports A (JSOAX): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol JSOAX · Financial Services · Asset Management · United States · Fund / Note
Is JSOAX undervalued?
At 11.35 (close of 5 Nov 2026), JSOAX trades 87% below the GLS average fair value of 84.26. That average comes from 3 models run on the latest filings, and 2 of them land above the current price. Margins of safety over 30% are the exception rather than the rule across the ~7,400 stocks we value each night, so the number earns JPMorgan Strategic Income Opports A the full Value points in the Wheel Score - and a closer look at what the market is pricing in.
The average is built from just 3 models (DCF, 10 Cap, DDM) - the rest returned nothing because an input they need (dividends, free cash flow, book value) is zero or negative - so treat it with more caution than usual.
JSOAX looks like a fund, note or preferred share rather than an operating company, so the nightly engine files it under Fund / Note: the valuation models are not built for it, and its Wheel Score is capped at 45.
Nine valuation models for JSOAX
Each model turns the latest filed numbers into a value per share; the GLS fair value is the simple average of the ones that produce a positive number. The last two rows are shown for reference and never enter the average. The Quote page lets you switch any model off and add your own margin of safety.

| Lynch | - | - | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25%; no value tonight |
| GLS Growth | - | - | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year; no value tonight |
| 10 Cap | 215.36 | +1797% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | - | - | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself; no value tonight |

Quality and financial health
JPMorgan Strategic Income Opports A scores only 4 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score, which fails the "Piotroski 6 or more" Wheel Trade Filter. A reading this low means several of the basic tests - positive earnings, positive operating cash flow, falling debt, no new share issuance - are not met. There is no GLS Moat score for JSOAX: funds, notes and second share lines get none, and so does a company with fewer than two years of accounts on file. The Moat part of the Wheel Score is zero.
Returns on capital are moderate - ROIC 6.8%, ROE 10.2%, ROA 1.6% - with debt at 0.50 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 72.1%.
The dividend yield is 3.41% at a payout ratio of 115%; for a wheel trader holding assigned shares the dividend adds to the covered-call premium, and the ex-dividend date is worth knowing before a call is sold.
Institutional ownership scores 5/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 4 / 9 | ROIC | 6.8% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | - / 10 | ROE | 10.2% |
| Debt / equity | 0.50 | ROA | 1.6% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 72.1% | Payout ratio | 115% |
| Institutions | 5 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 27: No options
No options are listed on JPMorgan Strategic Income Opports A in our nightly snapshot, so it fails the first Wheel Trade Filter (options that actually trade) (it reads 27, under 70) and is left out of every options scan; the fair value and health figures above are still useful for a plain stock position.
Volume runs at - a day on a market cap of $9.3B, with a beta of -0.04 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; the Stability part of the Wheel Score rates that good.

| 2 | A real business, not a gamble | Fails | a fund or note, not a company |

| 4 | Financially healthy | Fails | Piotroski 4/9 (under 6) |
| 5 | Can repay its debt | Passes | Long-term debt repaid from 3 years of operating cash flow or less (6 for real estate and utilities; banks and insurers are not judged on it) |
| 6 | No serious red flags | Passes | Red Flags score 60 or more out of 100 (earnings, margins, debt, analysts, filings and price checked the same way for every stock) |
| 7 | A premium worth selling | Fails | no implied volatility |
| 8 | Big enough | Passes | Market cap $1 billion or more |
| 9 | Not a penny stock | Passes | Share price $5 or more |
