Today’s list of stocks is somewhat void of financial stocks, yet many of these you’ll recognize. Here are today’s 52-week lows:

AU Optronics Corp. (NYSE: AUO) stock rose over prior lows but still looking weak after continued weakness.
CVR Energy, Inc. (NYSE: CVI) yet again.
eDiets.com (NASDAQ: DIET) preliminary earnings showing economics win over the need to lose weight and live healthy.
Entropic Communications (NASDAQ: ENTR) downgraded at Piper Jaffray a week ahead of earnings.
Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc. (NYSE: FDP) down 14% after earnings miss.
Global Industries Ltd. (NASDAQ: GLBL)…….. offshore oil & gas on lows?
O2Micro International Ltd. (NASDAQ: OIIM) down another 8%; now down over 2/3 from highs.
PC Connection Inc. (NASDAQ: PCCC) profit fell 12% and sees revenue flat in Q3; direct PC/IT marketing must not work for all.
Sony Corp. (NYSE: SNE) dismal earnings got them to 52-week lows.
Tennant Co. (NYSE: TNC) profit drop, weak guidance.. wow, even in cleaning solutions get weak.
Trident Microsystems Inc. (NASDAQ: TRID) disappointing earnings and at least 2 downgrades; shares down 26% late; now down 80% from highs.
Zoran Corp. (NASDAQ: ZRAN) weak outlook and five downgrades… chips are used in DVD players, home theater systems and other electronics, cited economic weakness and a slowdown in consumer spending. Go figure.

The market may have risen huge today, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t many losers when the economy is still in the tank.
