The difficulty with bargain shopping, though, is that you may be understandably hesitant to buy stocks wallowing at 52-week lows. In an effort to separate the rebound candidates from the laggards, it makes sense to start by determining whether the market has overreacted to a company's bad news.

Next up, we'll move from the realm of mega-cap stocks to a small-cap banking chain operating in the Ohio River Valley, First Merchants (NASDAQ:FRME). Finally, we'll turn our attention to the services sector and take a gander at why Matthews International (NASDAQ:MATW) is a value stock that should be considered for the long term.
