4 Undervalued Stocks Under $5 Positively Correlated With Volatility

2/8/2012

By Kapitall:

If you think the markets are going to become more volatile in the near future, you may be interested in this list.

We ran a screen on stocks trading under $5 for those significantly discounted from even their lowest (most pessimistic) target prices. We then screened these stocks for those with strongly positive correlations to VIX, the volatility index (or "fear gauge"), over the last three months.

The VIX index measures the implied volatility of S&P 500 index options, and it increases when market uncertainty takes over. If a stock has positive historical correlation with the VIX, it has tended to perform well when volatility and uncertainty spike. The market may be treating these stocks as "safe havens" during market crises.
