52 Week Lows

Two weeks ago 35 stocks with market caps over $100 million dollars hit 52 Week Lows. Last week that number dropped to eleven. In a week that saw the ASX 200 starting the week in the red, then going slightly positive trading sideways until a strong close on the final trading day of the week, only seven companies hit 52 Week Lows.

One of those companies may be attractive to bargain hunters. For the second week in a row, laser technology uranium enrichment provider Silex Systems (SLX) hit a new 52 Week Low but finished the week in positive territory. Over three years the share price is up 80% with revenues increasing in each of the last three fiscal years and low debt.
