I simply used the screener to find all of the 5 star stocks with the greatest 52-week losses. 5 stars should make them good picks and the high 52-week loss should make them cheap. We’ll see how it works!

Orthofix is a solid international player in the orthopedic and medical equipment market. The numbers aren't great on paper, but the forward P/E is at about 15, down from a current mark over 50. Given the aging population and growth in the health care sectors, one can expect to see a significant growth in earnings over the next year or two.
