The 2007 Rolaids List

Nothing gives an investor more heartburn than when a stock they own in their portfolio has a large down day. With that in mind, we compiled a list of current S&P 1500 stocks that had the most one-day drops of 5% or more in 2007. As the list below highlights, 22 stocks had more than 20 5% down days. (FMT) topped this year's list with 54 days of 5% declines or more. That works out to more than one per week!

While most of the stocks in the list were down big on the year, one name on the list, Champion Enterprises (CHB), had 22 'big' down days and still managed to finish the year up.

Uh, what do we do this information? And just one thought: I wish you had included the 43 most down names instead of 22 or so.
