Is It Time to Buy October's Worst-Performing S&P 500 Stocks?

Summary

77% Informative

Last month's biggest S&P 500 losers were Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ: SMCI ), Qorvo , Huntington Ingalls Industries , and Estée Lauder .

Each stock was downright boring for the better part of the month .

In just the last two days of October , each ticker ended up losing on the order of 30% .

These four names have already been identified as the market's top targets.

Huntington Ingalls' business is almost exclusively shipbuilding for a fickle U.S. Department of Defense .

Estée Lauder's target market is similarly fickle, with many regular cosmetics users perpetually hunting for something new.

Sooner or later, each of these companies will fare better than they're doing right now.
