In the current market climate, investors should focus on value names backed by strong earnings momentum, the investment bank says.

Jefferies has a list of stocks for investors to buy once the Federal Reserve starts cutting interest rates, widely expected to begin at the next central bank's policy meeting in September. Investors anticipate the Fed will lower its benchmark borrowing rate at least a quarter percentage point next month, the first reduction in more than four years. That's helped major U.S. indexes to bounce back and tamp down market volatility since a sharp sell-off earlier in August.

The screen was also limited to "attractively valued" stocks with price-to-earnings ratios below 20 and backed by strong earnings revisions that were either flat or higher over the past three month. Take a look at a few of the names below: JPMorgan was one of the bank's soft-landing scenario winners. The largest bank in the country just wrapped up 10-day advance. JPMorgan shares have outperformed the market this year, climbing more than 26%.
