From the Paper:

"Along with studying past crashes, market experts also analyze current economic components to check the market's pulse. The goal of "Fundamental Analysis," (assessment of underlying forces affecting economy's health) may include evaluating "financial data, management, business concept and competition. At the industry level, there might be an examination of supply and demand forces for the products offered. For the national economy, fundamental analysis might focus on economic data to assess the present and future growth of the economy. To forecast future stock prices, fundamental analysis combines economic, industry, and company analysis to derive a stock's current fair value and forecast future value. If fair value is not equal to the current stock price, fundamental analysts believe that the stock is either over or under valued and the market price will ultimately gravitate towards fair value."
