Everyone loves a good comeback story. Many analysts are projecting strong stock growth in 2025. That means investors may be looking at some laggards in their portfolios and hoping that they’ll turn around in the new year.  

Perhaps you’ve had the same thought. If so, we have good news and bad news. 

First, the bad news. Past performance, good or bad, is not always helpful in predicting future results. Some stocks can underperform the broader market or just their sector for many years.  

However, knowing which stocks are likely to outperform the market in any given year can be daunting. There are over 6,000 individual stocks you could own, and there is no shortage of opinions about which stocks will post the strongest gains.  

That said, lower corporate taxes and fewer regulations are bullish for stocks and the American consumer. That’s why you not only need to be in the market, but you also need to look for the names that might benefit most from a change in monetary policy.  

Now for the good news. MarketBeat has many tools that can help you set your portfolio for growth in 2025.  

This special presentation focuses on stocks that are not only underperforming the S&P 500 but are also within 30% of their 52-week low as of December 12, 2024. However, sometimes stocks are beaten down for a reason. That’s why the stocks on this list are all expected to post earnings growth of at least 10% in 2025. Solid earnings growth combined with a discounted stock price is a formula for future gains.
