As of this writing, the four worst performers in the S&P 500 year to date are Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) , Align Technology (NASDAQ: ALGN) , Match Group (NASDAQ: MTCH) , and Stanley Black & Decker (NYSE: SWK) . And I think two out of these four could be good opportunities to beat the market from here.
That's not to say these stocks aren't down for good reason -- they are. All four companies have challenges to overcome. But I believe a couple of these are better positioned than others to rise above and deliver for shareholders.
Netflix is the largest paid video-streaming service in the world. But it's not as big as it once was, and that's why the stock is down. The company peaked in the fourth quarter of 2021 with almost 222 million subscribers. However, in the past two quarters, its subscriber count has dropped by a little more than 1 million in total, and the market has consequently hammered the stock.
