Semi infinite, among the stocks in your list, the ones that would attract me are HRT and YAKC, because the stock price is low, the charts show significant 52-week loss, institutional ownership is low, the stock has dropped in December which reflects possible tax-loss selling. Also, the balance sheets are plenty strong enough to keep the co. afloat through January.

HRT is a stock I have previously shorted, because it's not a particularly good company. OTOH, anything that shows up in these screens is going to be down for some pretty ugly reasons.

MTMD is a former long of mine. I sold it earlier this year when I discovered that it was more richly valued than I thought -- the current p/e reflects earnings that are high due to not paying taxes, and that will change in the 4th quarter when their tax-loss carryforward is exhausted (see the November earnings PR.) As long as they don't issue PRs regarding their earnings while you still hold the stock, that might not affect you, I suppose.

good luck!
