Masters New Watch List: RIM, Patriot, and D. R. Horton

Thanks to Patriot Coal blowing today's conference call, the stock is down 8%.  Now is not the time to buy stocks, but to watch them, pick out a few good ones, and wait to drop in like a vulture on dying prey.

Fellow Masters, we add D.R. Horton, Inc. (NYSE:DHI), Research In Motion Limited (NASDAQ:RIMM) , and Patriot Coal Corporation (NYSE:PCX) to our watch list.  These are all solid companies but down on their luck, thus they all have been kicked to the curb by Wall Street and the expectations are now lowered.

All three of these stocks are playing in different sectors, thus providing some diversity and thanks to the Powers-that-be are trading near record lows (Cut & Paste Ticker Help: RIMM, DHI, PCX).

rimmResearch in Motion (RIMM)takes the loser award of the three with its shares 12% from its one year low and its stock down 34% since last September.  The Street has been killing this stock lately as analyst have been falling out of love with the Blackberry and head over heals iPhone or anything Andriod related.

Earlier this month RW Baird downgraded Research in Motion and since late June the target price reductions and downgrades have came in like rapid fire:

25-Jun-10 Reiterated UBS Neutral $70 → $65
25-Jun-10 Reiterated RBC Capital Mkts Top Pick $120 → $90
25-Jun-10 Downgrade Robert W. Baird Outperform → Neutral $88 → $59

However, the perfect time to review and consider stocks like RIM, Patriot, and D. R. Horton is when everyone else hates them.  Let's hope they continue to fall and provide us all with an entry point that is closer to their respective 52-week lows.
