The rally has been large enough that even with a sell-off of this magnitude we saw very few stocks on 52-week lows. Here are the ones hitting new 52-week lows today:
Allied Defense Group Inc. (ADG) hit a low on an intra-day basis, but it was a strange trade that came right back; could even be a trade break. Low print was $3.82; close at $4.07; prior range was $3.95 to $8.35.
British American Tobacco plc (NYSE: BTI) fell 3.5% to $43.77; prior 52-week range was $44.96 to $80.65. Do the Brits not smoke more in a recession? Jolly!
Express Scripts Inc. (NASDAQ: ESRX) down 4.5% at $44.09, low was $44.40 and high was $77.97. When PBM’s do poorly…
Macerich Co. (NYSE: MAC) fell almost 8% to $5.81 but was as low as $5.64; prior trading range was $5.80 to $76.50. Ouch, 90% off for the REIT.
United America Indemnity, Ltd (NASDAQ: INDM) down 8% at $3.82; prior range $3.92 to $20.22.
