11 Best 52-Week Low Stocks to Buy Right Now

In this article, we will look at the 11 Best 52-Week Low Stocks to Buy Right Now.

On July 2, Tom Lee, Fundstrat’s Head of Research and CIO, joined CNBC Television to discuss market conditions. He noted that the investors remain skeptical despite strong market gains. He elaborated that he used the term skeptical because the market is starting the month of July with the S&P 500 up 5% year-to-date. However, the investors are still not ready to own the stock market. This is because of the skepticism that perhaps President Trump is not going to extend the tariff exemptions in July.

Lee believes that despite a lot of favorable seasonals, the investors are not yet ready to invest with full confidence. This has led to one of the most hated V-shaped rallies in years. Lee notes that there is still around $7 trillion of cash on the sidelines. He also pointed out sectors to buy for the second half, which include small caps, financials, large and regional banks, industrials, Mag Seven, and some washed-out stocks.

With that, let’s take a look at the 11 Best 52-Week Low Stocks to Buy Right Now.

Our Methodology 

To curate the list of 11 Best 52-Week Low Stocks to Buy Right Now., we used the Finviz Stock Screener, Yahoo Finance, and CNN. Using the screener, we aggregated a list of stocks trading within 0%-3% of their 52-week lows, but analysts see more than 15% upside. Next, we cross-checked the 52-week range for each stock from Yahoo Finance and analyst upside potential from CNN and ranked the stocks in ascending order of the upside potential. We have also added the number of hedge funds holding each stock, sourced from the Insider Monkey Q1 2025 database. Please note that the data was recorded on June 30, 2025.

Why are we interested in the stocks that hedge funds pile into? The reason is simple: our research has shown that we can outperform the market by imitating the top stock picks of the best hedge funds. Our quarterly newsletter’s strategy selects 14 small-cap and large-cap stocks every quarter and has returned 373.4% since May 2014, beating its benchmark by 218 percentage points (see more details here).

The approval for Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc.’s  (NASDAQ:REGN) Dupixent was based on results from the pivotal ADEPT Phase 2/3 clinical trial, which showed 18.3% of Dupixent-treated patients achieved sustained disease remission. Moreover, the regulatory submissions for Dupixent in BP are also under review in other regions, including the EU, Japan, and China.

While we acknowledge the potential of REGN to grow, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk. If you are looking for an AI stock that is more promising than REGN and that has 100x upside potential, check out our report about this cheapest AI stock.

The $250 Trillion AI Hype is Real. A few years from now, you’ll probably wish you’d bought this stock.

Dr. Inan Dogan

Dr. Ian Dogan

Co-Founder and Research Director at Insider Monkey

When Jeff Bezos said that one breakthrough technology would shape Amazon’s destiny, even Wall Street’s biggest analysts were caught off guard.

Fast forward a year and Amazon’s new CEO Andy Jassy described generative AI as a “once-in-a-lifetime” technology that is already being used across Amazon to reinvent customer experiences.

At the 8th Future Investment Initiative conference, Elon Musk predicted that by 2040 there would be at least 10 billion humanoid robots, with each priced between $20,000 and $25,000.

Do the math. According to Musk, this technology could be worth $250 trillion by 2040.

Put another way, that’s roughly equal to:

  • 175 Teslas
  • 107 Amazons
  • 140 Metas
  • 84 Googles
  • 65 Microsofts
  • And 55 Nvidias

And here’s the wild part — this $250 trillion wave isn’t tied to one company, but to an entire ecosystem of AI innovators set to reshape the global economy.

It’s a leap so massive, it could reshape how businesses, governments, and consumers operate worldwide.

Even if that $250 trillion figure sounds ambitious, major firms like PwC and McKinsey still see AI unlocking multi-trillion-dollar potential.

How could anything be worth that much?

The answer lies in a breakthrough so powerful it’s redefining how humanity works, learns, and creates.

And this breakthrough has already set off a frenzy among hedge funds and Wall Street’s top investors.

What most investors don’t realize is that one under-owned company holds the key to this $250 trillion revolution.

In fact, Verge argues this company’s supercheap AI technology should concern rivals.

Before I reveal the details, let’s talk about how some of the richest people on the planet are positioning themselves.

  • Bill Gates sees artificial intelligence as the “biggest technological advance in my lifetime,” more transformative than the internet or personal computer, capable of improving healthcare, education, and addressing climate change.
  • Larry Ellison — through Oracle, is spending billions on Nvidia chips and partnering with Cohere to embed generative AI across Oracle’s cloud and apps.
  • Warren Buffett — not known for tech hype — says this breakthrough could have a ‘hugely beneficial social impact.

When billionaires from Silicon Valley to Wall Street line up behind the same idea — you know it’s worth paying attention to.

Even as we admire what Tesla, Nvidia, Alphabet, and Microsoft have built, we believe an even greater opportunity lies elsewhere…

But the real story isn’t Nvidia — it’s a much smaller company quietly improving the critical technology that makes this entire revolution possible.

And judging by what I’m hearing from both Silicon Valley insiders and Wall Street veterans…

This prediction might not be bold at all:

A few years from now, you’ll wish you’d owned this stock.

The best part? You can discover everything about this company and its groundbreaking technology right now.

I’ve compiled everything you need to know about this groundbreaking company in a detailed, members-only report.

My name is Inan Dogan. I’m the co-founder and Research Director of Insider Monkey. I have an important message for you today.

Since March 2017, my stock picks have returned 16.5% annually. Today, I’ve found an opportunity even bigger than my British American Tobacco call.

Two years ago, Wall Street wrote off British American Tobacco (BTI) as a “melting ice cube.” The stock had crashed 40% from its peak, and consensus said the business was dying.

We looked under the cover and realized they were wrong.

We alerted our subscribers, and BTI returned 90% in just 16 months.

Now if you had invested just $10,000 in BTI in June 2024, you’d be sitting on $19,000 in October 2025.

Today, we have identified a nearly identical pattern in a digital-first giant trading at $3.

While the market panics over a surface-level revenue decline, our PhD-led research shows management has actually surgically cut $100 million in waste to focus on high-margin growth.

This pattern is a hallmark of our 16.5% annual return track record. The current opportunity offers a 400% upside potential—dwarfing even our 90% BTI return.

Get the ticker for our new “Underdog” pick and the full BTI case study for just 99 cents.
