Most investors prefer to buy stock in companies with solid business plans and real earnings that don't carry outlandish valuation multiples. Others have a soft spot for distressed stocks, especially ones poised for a big rebound.
When a stock's down 90% from its high, business prospects are fragile, Wall Street is running for cover, and bankruptcy seems just around the corner - it's the kind of contrarian play that catches an investor's eye. And the prospect of capturing monster returns from a distressed stock's turnaround has an undeniable allure.
