Stock screens are only a start to the investing process. But screens are important. Every investor needs a way to winnow down the investing universe. Value investors, often times, like to start looking for new ideas in the bargain bin—where stock price have been deeply discounted.
From April to July—when Barron’s first checked back in—the group rose about 16% on average, better than the comparable gain of about 13% for both the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average. The next dirty dozen yielded: Cabot Oil & Gas , Medtronic , Universal Health Services , L3Harris Technologies , Northrop Grumman , Elanco Animal Health , Biogen , Huntington Ingalls Industries , Hershey , Baxter , Cboe Global Markets , and Mercury Systems .
Energy is still well represented in the beaten up stock category. Energy components of the S&P 500 are still down 46% year to date and have dropped about 12% since early July. Benchmark crude oil prices are down about 7% since then. The energy sector has had it rough this year with supply and demand both going in the wrong direction. The four new energy stocks in our screen, however, all still pay a dividend. The average yield is north of 4%.
The rest are difficult to group. FLIR has a consumer and defense franchise. It faltered after second quarter earnings were reported, falling about 9%. Hexcel—a composite material supplier—has been through a failed merger attempt with Woodward and is dealing with reduced commercial air travel demand due to the pandemic. A lot of composite materials end up on commercial jets.Overall, the latest dirty dozen fell about 8% over the past couple of months.
