Value investors like to say that the stock market is the only place where they hold a sale and no one shows up. In other words, investors tend to be least interested in buying stocks just when the buying is best. For long-term investors, now is a great time to look for high-quality investments that have been dragged down—ideally over a period of several months, so most of the sellers have already bailed—and are now starting to turn around.
The key to reducing risk in these situations is to wait for signs of a real turnaround to appear before investing. That means 1) the beginning of an uptrend (and the end of the downtrend) in the stock, and 2) improvement in revenue and/or earnings. I’ll share three of my favorite stocks today: Applied Materials (AMAT), Brinker International (EAT) and Cummins (CMI).
