When it comes to the stock market, the general consensus is that cheap stocks are cheap for a reason. However, there are times where a good business or good opportunity is under-appreciated by the stock market.
Those stocks seem to slip through the cracks, even though many of these companies are well-known entities.
Granted, a lot of times cheap stocks fail to pay off. However, we’ve seen more than enough examples where a $15 stock goes to $50 or a $20 stock scores to $75. Are we looking at that opportunity for some of the names below?
Perhaps.
Let’s look at seven cheap stocks to speculate on with a few hundred bucks:
Ford (NYSE:F) Palantir (NYSE:PLTR) Opendoor Technologies (NASDAQ:OPEN) BlackBerry (NYSE:BB) SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) Gogo (NASDAQ:GOGO) AcuityAds Holdings (NASDAQ:ATY)
Now, let’s dive in and take a closer look at each one.

Stocks to Watch Today: KHC, HD, JWN, M, AAPL
Kraft Heinz Co. (NYSE: KHC) is still licking its wounds after an abysmal earnings report on Thursday and a weak 2019 outlook. The consumer goods giant is looking to reshape its business as consumer tastes continue to evolve. According to reports, the firm – backed heavily by Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE: BRK.A) – is considering a deal to sell its Maxwell House brand. Warren Buffett is also affecting shares of Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL). Although AAPL stock added 0.4% in pre-market hours, Buffett said he would not purchase more shares of the company stock at these levels. However, should AAPL stock pull back in the near future, the “Oracle of Omaha” would consider purchasing more. Earnings season may be winding down, but concerns about the U.S. brick-and-mortar retail industry are always high. This week, Home Depot Inc. (NYSE: HD), Nordstrom Inc. (NYSE: JWN), and Macy’s Inc. (NYSE: M) will report earnings from the holiday quarter. Look for earnings reports from American States Water Co. (NYSE: AWR), Chatham Lodging Trust (NYSE: CLDT), EPR Properties (NYSE: EPR), Etsy Inc. (NASDAQ: ETSY), Life Storage Inc. (NYSE: LSI), Mosaic Co. (NYSE: MOS), Oneok Inc. (NYSE: OKE), Potbelly Corp.

Breakups are a great way for companies to unlock a lot of value, Cramer reminded viewers. That's certainly been the case with XPO Logistics (XPO) – Get Report, which recently spun off GXO Logistics (GXO) – Get Report, and with the former L Brands, which split itself into Victoria's Secret (VSCO) – Get Report and Bath & Body Works (BBWI) – Get Report.

There’s a lot going on with XPO Logistics (NYSE:XPO) these days.
The transportation company just spun off its contract logistics division, GXO Logistics (NYSE:GXO), making it easier for investors to value the stock compared with less-than-truckload peers like Old Dominion and Saia. XPO also just posted record results in its second-quarter earnings report, showing the company is benefiting from the economic reopening.

Monday was an extremely strong day for the stock market, as major indexes finished well above where they started the session. Favorable economic data on retail sales renewed confidence that the U.S. economy continues to do well despite headwinds elsewhere around the world, and investors were pleased to see the U.S. and China discuss their respective currencies as part of their broader trade talks. Some benchmarks rose as much as 2%, but certain individual stocks saw even larger gains. NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA), XPO Logistics (NYSE:XPO), and Infinera (NASDAQ:INFN) were among the top performers. Here’s why they did so well.

Advisors’ Opinion:

In PMT, Honeywell’s process-solutions rival Emerson Electric (NYSE:EMR) continues to report strong results. But whereas Emerson’s CEO David Farr is expecting to benefit from relatively stronger LNG (liquefied natural gas) spending in the current cycle, Honeywell’s LNG revenue accounts for just 5% of its PMT sales, and it’s more heavily exposed to petrochemical and refining spending.

Emerson Electric Co. (NYSE: EMR) offers technology and engineering solutions to industrial, commercial and consumer markets. While it has had exposure to oil and gas, the company is poised for earnings growth, and its dividend hike in November of 2018 marked the 62nd straight year of dividend hikes.

Truehand Inc purchased a new position in shares of Emerson Electric Co. (NYSE:EMR) in the fourth quarter, according to its most recent disclosure with the SEC.

Emerson Electric makes up 1.8% of Truehand Inc’s investment portfolio, making the stock its 19th largest position.

Emerson Electric (NYSE:EMR) recently had its first-quarter 2019 earnings call, and one week later held an investor conference where CEO David Farr laid out his medium-term outlook. The key takeaway from both events is that Emerson Electric’s immediate guidance has some uncertainty around it, but unless you believe that the global economy will slow notably in the next few years, the stock looks like a good value for income-seeking investors. Here’s why.

A lot can happen to a stock in just a couple of weeks. There were 275.5 million shares of Sirius XM Holdings (NASDAQ:SIRI) sold short at the end of January, the largest number of bearish bets placed on the satellite radio provider in more than a year. Two weeks later, short interest fell to 174.7 million shares, a fresh 52-week low in pessimism.
- [By Money Morning News Team]
Or look at Sirius XM Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: SIRI). It traded for just $0.70 in 2010. Now it’s worth $5.90 a share, an incredible 778% surge.
Those are the sorts of potential gains the top penny stocks offer, and you wouldn’t have to trade sketchy shell companies on pink sheets to access those gains either.

There’s more at stake for Huntington Ingalls and fellow shipbuilder General Dynamics (NYSE:GD) beyond the $6.5 billion in lost refueling revenue. A modern aircraft carrier does not sail alone but rather relies on a large number of escorts and affiliated ships that also need to be acquired and staffed. There is also the expense of finding pilots for the large number of planes that are housed on a carrier.

The Saudi THAAD deal appears safe, but other contractors have not been as fortunate. General Dynamics (NYSE:GD) in January warned investors that cash flow generated by the company’s land-systems business was “significantly impacted” by diplomatic issues between Canada and an unnamed customer. Though the company offered few other details, General Dynamics in December launched a public campaign against attempts by Canadian government officials to block a $13 billion sale of Canada-made armored vehicles to the Saudis.

Labor Day is a popular weekend for sales, especially because it falls in the middle of the back-to-school shopping season. Bed Bath & Beyond, (ticker: BBBY) for example, is offering up to 60% off select bedding, kitchen and bath items, and vacuums. Macy’s (M) is also advertising a sale of 20% to 60% off. Kohl’s (KSS) is offering 40% off on jeans, and Wayfair (W) has discounts up to 70%.

The stock market reacted briefly but strongly to the news of Amazon’s fresh foray into brick and mortar, bidding even the day’s retail winners Macy’s (NYSE:M) and Kohl’s (NYSE:KSS) down into negative territory, though both soon went explosively positive again. Dozens of other retail stocks also dipped simultaneously on the news. Investors clearly think Amazon going into physical retail is a potentially important factor, not only for the e-commerce titan but for a whole swath of its possible competitors.
