Hitting a new 52-week low can be a pivotal moment for any stock. These floors often mark either the beginning of a turnaround story or confirmation that a company faces serious headwinds.

At StockStory, we dig beneath the surface of price movements to uncover whether a company's fundamentals justify its current valuation or suggest hidden potential. That said, here is one stock where you should be greedy instead of fearful and two where the outlook is warranted.

Two Stocks to Sell:

Post (POST)

One-Month Return: -1.1%

Founded in 1895, Post (NYSE: POST) is a packaged food company known for its namesake breakfast cereal and healthier-for-you snacks.

Why Are We Cautious About POST?

1. Shrinking unit sales over the past two years show it’s struggled to move its products and had to rely on price increases
2. 1.7 percentage point decline in its free cash flow margin over the last year reflects the company’s increased investments to defend its market position
3. Below-average returns on capital indicate management struggled to find compelling investment opportunities

Post’s stock price of $107.81 implies a valuation ratio of 15.2x forward P/E. Check out our free in-depth research report to learn more about why POST doesn’t pass our bar.

Gartner (IT)

One-Month Return: -11.7%

With over 2,500 research experts guiding organizations through complex technology landscapes, Gartner (NYSE: IT) provides research, advisory services, and conferences that help executives make better decisions about technology and other business priorities.

Why Do We Think Twice About IT?

1. Earnings growth over the last two years fell short of the peer group average as its EPS only increased by 9.3% annually

At $356.99 per share, Gartner trades at 28.7x forward P/E. If you’re considering IT for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.

One Stock to Watch:

KBR (KBR)

One-Month Return: -1.6%

Known for projects like the construction of Guantanamo Bay, KBR provides professional services and technologies, specializing in engineering, construction, and government services sectors.

Why Are We Fans of KBR?

1. Annual revenue growth of 10.3% over the last two years beat the sector average and underscores the unique value of its offerings
2. Operating profits and efficiency rose over the last five years as it benefited from some fixed cost leverage
3. Share repurchases have amplified shareholder returns as its annual earnings per share growth of 16% exceeded its revenue gains over the last five years

KBR is trading at $47.15 per share, or 12.2x forward P/E. Is now a good time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.
