Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Way oversold. Decreases in earnings are more than priced in.

Former Wall Street Favorites Sink to Single Digits
The following includes a growing list of companies whose stock are trading in single digits despite a market cap exceeding $5B as investors no longer need to venture into the minefield of micro-cap stocks for tremendous volatility and trading opportunities. It is not meant to be a complete list, but represents well-known companies across a variety of sectors which offer the potential for high returns once the current market pessimism passes and economic growth returns.

The best approach for investing or trading in these stocks is to select a basket of at least five of the companies to balance the inherent risks of the current bear market with the potential for reward in the form of major upside on sharp market rallies or through long-term recoveries. The stock prices, 10-year returns, market caps, and dividend yields are listed for each company.

S&P 500 SPDR ETF (SPY) -28% (10-year return)

Citigroup (C) $6.40, -70%, $35B, 7.7%
Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM) $6.13, -58%, $31B, 6.1%
Time Warner (TWX) $8.14, -53%, $29B, 3%
EMC Corp (EMC) $9.80, -41.5%, $20B, 0%
News Corp (NWS) $6.55, -51%, $16.5B, 1.8%
Corning (GLW) $8.43, -37%, $13B, 2.4%
Yahoo! (YHOO) $9.14, -56.5%, $12.7B, 0%
Applied Materials (AMAT) $8.42, -12%, $11.3B, 2.5%
Boston Scientific (BSX) $6.55, -45%, $9.8B, 0%
Motorola (MOT) $3.44, -81%, $7.8B, 5.1%
Alcoa (AA) $8.16, -59%, $6.5B, 7.2%
Southwest Airlines (LUV) $8.67, -9%, $6.4B, 0.2%
Sara Lee (SLE) $8.82, -71%, $6.2B, 4.7%

Citigroup has lost over two-thirds of its market value over the past 10 years and is down about 33% in just the last five days, trading at a market cap of $35B – despite a $25B equity stake by the U.S. government as part of the $700B rescue package and below the $41B market cap of U.S. Bancorp (USB).

The departure of Jerry Yang as CEO of Yahoo! resulted in a short-lived bounce earlier this week which ended abruptly yesterday as Microsoft (MSFT) CEO Steve Ballmer reiterated that buyout talks are finished, but a deal for web search is still possible. This morning, Bloomberg is reporting that talks continue between Yahoo! and Time Warner (TWX) for the latter to sell its AOL stake. Such a deal may be valued at around $6B and would boost Yahoo's display advertising business and add subscribers through email and IM. Yahoo! has seen its market cap dwindle to below $13B since rejecting Microsoft's bid of $47.5B earlier this year.

The list also features some high-yielding tech stocks such as Motorola and Taiwan Semi, with dividend yields of 5.1% and 6.1%, respectively, which are largely the result of share price declines to single digits. Traditional safe have sectors also make the list with consumer staple products maker Sara Lee and medical devices and stent maker Boston Scientific.

One of several underpriced stocks. Snap it up while the price is right.

I dumped this stock at $11, because I was upset with management regarding their forward-looking statements. They seemed to be ahead of the curve a few months ago, but they continue to reiterate what they plan to do to cope with the meltdown in LCD sales. HIMX warned early (although after GLW's warning), and took steps to stem the bleeding. GLW did not. Thus, when HIMX reported earnings, they we better than expected. GLW's was not.

That said, demand will recover, and I like the company at this valuation. Long term, the company is solid and will certainly be able to manage this economic downturn. Even well-managed companies make mistakes. Looking at their market cap, they sure have paid for them.

I would call this a great recession bargain. LCD TV's are only going to get better and Corning has leading-edge technologies in the sector. They are such a diversified company, holding investment in automotive, electronics, health care, household and cleaning products, personal care, plastics, and textiles. The only downside of this stock is their Execs are paid TOO WELL. It would be nice to see that lower during the recession.
