11 Oversold Stocks with Strong Fundamentals to Consider Now
In a recent analysis, investment experts identified a range of oversold stocks with robust fundamentals that may offer potential upside. Jim Walker, Chief Economist at Aletheia Capital, expressed concerns about the economic outlook for 2026, highlighting a likely slowdown across advanced economies including the United States, Europe, the UK, and Japan. He noted that emerging markets like India and China will need to stimulate their domestic economies to counterbalance the anticipated declines.
Economic Indicators and Stock Selection
Walker emphasized that investors should closely monitor the investment component of GDP in the US, particularly as housing market conditions and interest rate trends suggest a potential slowdown. He projects US GDP growth to average only 2.2% in the coming year. Despite this, there are bright spots, particularly in the realm of artificial intelligence (AI). According to State Street Investment Management, the US remains at the forefront of AI trade, with capital spending expected to rise to approximately $520 billion in 2026, representing over 30% year-on-year growth.
Given these dynamics, we turn to the 11 oversold stocks identified as having strong fundamentals. The selection process involved analyzing various rankings, focusing on stocks that have seen declines of at least 26% over the past six months, while also showing potential for recovery. The stocks are ranked according to hedge fund sentiment as of the third quarter of 2025.
