These stocks just hit 52-week lows

Every NYSE, NASDAQ and AMEX-listed company above $2 billion in market value, checked against its own highest and lowest print of the last year. A company qualifies when its last price sits within 3% of that 52-week low. The table is then ordered by the year-to-date move, which is the column shown on each bar.

A one-year low is the cleanest evidence that the market has changed its mind about a company. It says nothing about whether the market is right. Two businesses can hit the same low for opposite reasons — one because earnings genuinely fell apart, one because a sector rotated out of favour — and the only way to tell them apart is to look at what each company is actually doing.

For every company on the list you get a one-year price chart, a snapshot of revenue, earnings, cash flow and debt from the latest filed period, our Insider Score, the published analyst targets and the upside those imply, and a short bull and bear case. Each line in those cases is generated from a figure we hold and carries the source of that figure — none of it is written prose.

Officers and directors buying their own stock while it makes new lows are doing the one thing that costs them money to be wrong about. Where the breakdown shows open-market purchases, it shows who bought, how much, and whether the current price is above or below what they paid. Where it shows none, it says so — an absence of buying is not a sale, and we do not dress it up as one.

The upside figure compares the average published target over the last 180 days with the last close. Targets are opinions with dates on them; they lag price badly on the way down, which is exactly why a stock at a 52-week low often shows a large apparent upside. Treat a big number as a question, not an answer.

It does not rank these companies as buys, and it does not screen out businesses in genuine trouble — some of the names here deserve to be where they are. It also cannot see anything filed after the refresh below. This is a starting list, not a conclusion.

The screen is rebuilt every Friday after the close, and the “Updated” date at the top of this page is the timestamp of that rebuild. The companion list of stocks at 52-week highs is built the same way, from the same universe, on the same schedule.
