This COVID-19 induced sell-off has been the worst since the Great Depression in terms of breadth and velocity of the sell-off. This health crisis has crushed stocks and decimated entire industries such as airlines, casinos, travel, leisure, and retail with others in the crosshairs. <\/p>\n<p>The broader indices have shed approximately a third of their market capitalization into April. Some individual stocks directly related to the COVID-19 pandemic have lost ~50% to well over 80% of their market capitalization. Investors have been presented with a unique opportunity to start speculating on some of these names as sharp rebound candidates. Throughout this market sell-off, I have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ino.com\/blog\/2020\/04\/covid-19-opportunity-laying-the-foundation\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">begun to speculate<\/a> on a variety of names with small amounts of capital. Let's not confuse speculation for investment; thus, these trades are purely speculative for a sharp potential recovery. These names have been battered to levels not seen since the Financial Crisis. Names such as <strong>Expedia <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=EXPE&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(EXPE)<\/a>, Wynn Resorts <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=WYNN&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(WYNN)<\/a>, Capri Holdings <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=CPRI&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(CPRI)<\/a>, MGM Resorts <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=MGM&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(MGM)<\/a>, American Insurance Group <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=AIG&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(AIG)<\/a>, The Gap <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=GPS&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(GPS)<\/a>, Square <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=SQ&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(SQ)<\/a>, Lowes <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=LOW&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(LOW)<\/a>, HP Inc. <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=HPQ&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(HPQ)<\/a>, Walgreens <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=WBA&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(WBA)<\/a>, Yelp <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=YELP&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(YELP)<\/a>, Yum Brands <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=YUM&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(YUM<\/a>), General Electric <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=GE&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(GE)<\/a>, Ulta Beauty <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=ULTA&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(ULTA)<\/a>, Royal Caribbean <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=RCL&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(RCL)<\/a>, Boeing <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=BA&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(BA)<\/a>, Hasbro <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=HAS&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(HAS)<\/a> and Twitter <a href=\"https:\/\/club.ino.com\/trend\/?s=TWTR&mktcode=TradersBlogTA\">(TWTR)<\/a><\/strong> are some speculative names that have sold off ~50%-85%.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"color: #003380; font-size: 20px;\">Evaporated Market Capitalization<\/h2>\n<p>The COVID-19 pandemic has destroyed entire industries and many individual stocks. Anything related to travel, leisure, retail, industrials, and discretionary spending has been cut by 50% or more. Companies are being tested like no other time in history where the entire economy is at a standstill under the COVID-19 coast is clear. Amid this economic wreckage, speculation can potentially<!--more--> yield huge gains once this pandemic passes, and companies can get back on their feet. Expedia (EXPE), Wynn Resorts (WYNN), Capri Holdings (CPRI), MGM Resorts (MGM), The Gap (GPS), Yelp (YELP), Yum Brands (YUM), General Electric (GE), Ulta Beauty (ULTA), Royal Caribbean (RCL), Boeing (BA) and Twitter (TWTR) are some speculative names that have sold off ~50%-85% (Figure 1). <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/assets.ino.com\/img\/sites\/ino\/email\/11282.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.ino.com\/img\/sites\/ino\/email\/11282.jpg\" width=\"1372\" height=\"774\" alt=\"COVID-19\" class=\"aligncenter size-full\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<small><em>Figure 1 \u2013 A slew of potential speculative stocks that have lost 50%-80% of their market capitalizations.

These stock positions have been purchased well off their highs, and I've averaged down throughout this sell-off using small amounts of capital (Table 1). These speculative positions will serve as a small portion of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ino.com\/blog\/2020\/04\/covid-19-opportunity-laying-the-foundation\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">my portfolio<\/a> in an effort to aim for huge gains when the market recovers.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.ino.com\/img\/sites\/ino\/email\/11283.jpg\" width=\"645\" height=\"500\" alt=\"COVID-19\" class=\"aligncenter size-full\" \/><br \/>\n<small><em>Table 1 \u2013 Initiating speculative positions throughout the market sell-off for securities that have lost more than 50% of their value<\/em><\/small><\/p>\n<p>Hasbro (HAS) was added as a speculative position and quickly turned into a 51% realized gain as a result. When the market has sharp drops, it tends to have quick and drastic rebounds to the upside that can yield quick double-digit gains. <\/p>\n<h2 style=\"color: #003380; font-size: 20px;\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>It's a great time to add speculative positions to your portfolio in companies that have lost the vast majority of their value. These stocks have the potential to explode higher when the market inevitably rebounds. Hasbro was a recent example of taking a small position and then turning that into a 50% realized gain in a matter of trading days. <\/p>\n<p>After this epic sell-off, some stocks are worth speculating on as these are too cheap to ignore. When you sell during a panic, you may miss the market's best days as rapid sell-offs often lead to quick bounces. COVID-19 has sent shock waves through the markets, causing market capitalizations to be wiped out across a slew of stocks. The COVID-19 induced sell-off has presented an excellent opportunity to add speculative positions.
