S&P 500 Stocks At 52-Week Lows: Wednesday’s Full List
A short list of market laggards contains a high-growth name facing a steep, recent decline.
As of Wednesday, 3 S&P 500 stocks are trading at their 52-week lows. The largest name on this brief list is AppLovin (APP), with a market value of about $102.5 billion.

What does a new low mean when revenue is still growing?
AppLovin (APP) stands out for its fundamentals. The company’s stock is at its low for the year, yet its revenue grew 60.6% over the last twelve months. It currently trades at 23.1 times trailing earnings. For contrast, Nike (NKE) is also on the list, but its revenue grew just 0.2% over the same period.
So is a 52-week low a signal to buy or to avoid?
A list of stocks at their yearly lows is not an automatic shopping list. A new low can mark a permanently damaged company or simply a temporarily marked-down business. The disciplined move is always to investigate the underlying business fundamentals before reacting to the price itself. This list is a starting point for that work, not a conclusion.
If any of these names tempt you, resist buying a price alone. Our Buy the Dip screen asks the follow-up question that matters: which marked-down stocks still have the growth and cash generation to recover.
Weakness Is Information. It Is Not An Instruction
A 52-week low tells you what the market thinks today. It does not tell you what to do, and acting on price alone is how value traps get bought. The missing ingredient is always the same: is the business still sound?
Asking that question across thousands of stocks, every day, is exactly how the Trefis High Quality (HQ) Portfolio is built: roughly 30 names that pass the quality screens, held with rules instead of nerve. It has a track record of outpacing a benchmark that combines the three major indices – the S&P 500, S&P Mid-cap, and Russell 2000. Let the low list sharpen your watchlist, and let the portfolio carry the risk.
