The S&P 500 hit a new all-time high. But 59% of the stocks inside it are trading 20% or more below their own highs. One in six is down 50% or more. Nineteen of the 20 stocks driving the index this year are tied to AI. Together, they account for the entire 13% gain. The other 480 are collectively flat. And that's the market Whitney Tilson has been waiting for. Whitney is an old-school Buffett-Munger value investor at Stansberry Research. Back in 2012, he pitched Netflix when it was a $3 billion company. It went on to become a 100-bagger in eight years. Right now, he says he's finding a target-rich list of beaten-down stocks. In a new interview, he named three of them. One speculative small cap. One mid-cap. One trillion-dollar giant. None of them is an AI play. See Whitney's 3 Beaten-Down Stocks Here The one I can't stop thinking about is the mid-cap. Whitney went back through the history books and found something remarkable. In mid-1988, Walmart was doing about $18.6 billion in trailing sales. That's roughly what this company does today. He compared profitability. Identical. He compared the forward P/E. Identical. From there, Walmart became nearly a 100-bagger, and that doesn't count dividends. Whitney isn't promising a repeat. But this stock just dropped 34% in two months. And he says nothing about its long-term growth runway has changed. It's a name Wall Street knows well, and most investors walk right past it. Then there's the speculative pick. Whitney recommended it at $7. It tripled. Now it's right back at $7. He believes that if the core business doesn't pan out, it could trigger "the mother of all bidding wars." And the giant has a late-stage pipeline drug that Whitney expects to dominate its category. He also sees a use case he thinks the market is badly underestimating. While everyone else crowds into the same 20 stocks, these three are sitting at a discount. Watch the Full Interview and Get All 3 Names → Bridget Bennett
